Hola from the critique club.. :)
ok, im gonna start off by telling you this is a good image for something taken in 2002. When one enters a challenge such as best of 2002 one must consider the caliber of person he is going up against. Many of the people on dpc are professional's, this considered many of them probably had dSLR's in 2002.
Now to the image. Not to be artsy and critical but composition lacks, mainly because you didnt follow the rule of thirds, i know this is a snapshot but that would have boosted your score i little. I also think that you could have eddited this a little bit more in order to make the subject 'pop' more. i say this because in order for the photograph to be succesfull it must possess a main subject, in this photograph the lighting was flat, causing everything to look the same.
I understand that this is just a snapshot, and that you weren't really taking into acount the rule of thirds and the lighting and such, but in order to score well here, you have to do that, even if it is just a snapshot.
if you have any comments or questions please feel free to PM me. :)
hope i helped,
