Composition: The hand and the coin seem to balance well with the black background. There appears to be just enough negative space. Cutting of the arm just above the wrist seems to work for you here due to the context.

Lighting: The lighting appears to be a bit too harsh and/or the white balance is a bit off. The skin tone does not appear natural. It looks a bit too orange. The light appears to be very strong coming from the right.

Exposure: The strong light has created some very strong highlighted areas on both the hand and the coin, however, the overall image appears to be exposed correctly. A slightly different angle for the light may help reduce the strong hightlights and give a more balanced exposure.

Impact: The coin frozen in midair and the hand frozen in the flip position seem to make the image static. A slower shutter speed to catch the motion of the coin and/or the movement of the thumb I believe would portray the sense of choice better and produce more impact.

Keep shooting.

I do like the picture because I am from Montreal . . . but I would have liked to see the flame.
The camera is distracting despite the fact That I like the camera (SAME as mine)

You've captured the emotion here quite well, but you've cropped/cut out the bit that makes your headline, the flame that I assume is at the top of the alloy tube... The camera is a litle distracting as well.

Lucky guy. This would of scored higher if we could of seen the torch. Sorry, but the crop or composition is weak. Good luck in the challenge.

I think this would be much stronger if it showed the actual flame.
