Technically fine, but I don't feel that you've added enough photographically to a shot of another person's artwork to score highly. Sorry.

It's kind of cool shot, but not really working for the challenge.

While the artwork is kinda cool, and your photo is probably okay by current DPC advanced editing rules, it feels like your stealing that person's art and passing it off as your own. I don't know what to say about the quality of your photo, because what makes it cool is mostly what the graffiti artist did. Since the graffiti is probably part of a larger work, I guess I can say nice choice of composition, and interesting subject.
