The technicals: Lighting is harsh, which is usual for a brightly lit snow day. Composition isn't too bad.

The feel: although you capture a decent DOF, I'm not sure what the background people are adding to the shot. In fact, they serve as a distraction to pull our eye away from the subject. The usual purpose of a shallow DOF is to make the subject stand out. The people work counter to this.

The game: I think the picture is a victim of the lighting and the "snapshot" feel. The background is to blame for this.
