Congrats on your ribbon. Sometimes simple works best, and in this case that is true. So, how do you feel about this shot? Its a bit different from your time studies. I think it was the use of red that really made this shot stand out.

Some point-and-shoot cameras can do this effect in the camera, but here this is probably not the case

Usually I do not like when only one color is preserved in a black 'n' white shot, but this one works well. Nicely done.
