I can tell that there is beauty in here but I feel it would have worked much better if you would have cropped a lot tighter on one of the elements to isolate it from all of the distracting elements. It's just too busy as it is. 5
Technical: fits the challenge. Exposure composition focus all pretty good, though I think having a more even background would have made this image stronger. Lighting is a bit harsh for me, it makes detail a little difficult to see in both the well lit and shadowed areas.
Personal: The subject is too busy for me in this image. Taken from different angles and with something diffusing the sunlight mighh have produced a stronger contender.
