Ah, this is a beautiful and very well posed image. Even the lighting looks good, but you failed to take advantage of the size and in doing so you undermined this wonderful effort.
You image is strong - a good rendition of hope. It is just too small to really vote accurately. You need to use more of the allowed 640 pixel /side and 150k file size.
Great idea, but a technically flawed image because: looks like he's leaning to the right; too small (use your full 640 pix and 150K), too centered composition; blurry. Your photograph, with the above technical issues corrected, would've scored respectably well (top 3rd?).
Like the idea, but the image is WAY too small. I think the lighting is a little harsh as well, but it is hard to tell with the size of the image. When you resize to fit the constraints of the challenge, the physical size of the image should be as close to the 640 as possible. When you go to save the resized image there should be an options button (at least there is in the 4 different programs I have for photo editing on my computer). In options, adjust the compression factor a little at a time to bring the size of the file to 150 or less. Hope that helps and I look forward to seeing what you produce in the future!
