Don't feel bad about coming at the bottom of the stack. Your final score is higher than the score for my current free study entry.
This was a good idea, it was just the wrong time of day to shoot it. I can see that you were going for the sunset in the background, but your fill flash reflected off the subject pretty harshly because of the shiny paint. The only way to shoot this with flash and not have hot spots would be to shoot the flash through a sheet or bounce it off a large white reflector to diffuse the light. Advanced editing challenges are tough unless you have a good handle on photoshop or some other good editing program.
Don't be discouraged. Some of your other shots that you didn't enter in challenges are excellent. Side challenges are a great way to share knowledge and make pals here without sticking your neck out about your score average.
