From the Critique Club - !

I think you have a very nice image going here. Good contrast, dark without being to dark, nice crop.
However I don't really like the border... personal taste.

Regardless of my taste on borders, one suggestion you might try would be to use a smaller white line as the thick ones grabs a lot of attention.

I think probably the factor behind the fairly low score (36%) is the lack of WOW factor, its a good image but not that exiting.

Cheers,
tehben
