while I generaly like tight crops on a subject, I think it hurts the image here. having the wings cut off make you lose the sense of scale of the glider and the aerial environment. It is a good entry for the challenge as the colors pop quite nicely, but the crop hurts the shot for me.

nice take on the challenge. i think it would be a little more dynamic if it was rotated slightly ccw.
