The photo would be more powerfull if the background wasn't quite so distracting.

I am trying to find "new" here. Not a bad photograph, just can't see how it meets the challenge.

I like the concept, when looking at the photo you are drawn to the shoots first which is good, however, I then get lost in the rest of the photo and everything just blends into everything else. So when I now look back to the main subject, it isn't popping out at me. Maybe a great DOF or a tighter angle (lower to the floor) would have helped.
