You have a good composition with a pleasing subject. You might want to check your white balance before you take the shot. Also, check the size of your image. The largest allowed in most challenges is 640 pixels max on the long side. Occasionally, it's larger. It's to your advantage to make it as large as possible.
it is always better to take full advantage of the 640 px dpc resolution. Your entry is only 450 x 300 px.
Nice capture. WB its a bit to cold for my taste.
