IMHO your entry is not really a portrait. A portrait, in my opinion should be a non action focusing on ones face, facial expression or something like that. Usualy portraits should end somewhere in the sholders area, even if it doesn't the head and face should be the main focus. Some had stretched it too animals, birds, I even seen a cofee can but personaly when I see a full body where the face is not the main subject I don't consider it a portrait. Other than that the shot is ok, I just don't consider it as a portrait. I'm sure it would of done better in other challenges.
