"DPCer's Will Do Anything For A Challenge" is a interesting shot, I am not sure what is odd about it, but it might be something that most voters don't know. Unfortunately I think since most voters did not understand what is odd about the couple the score suffered.

The image is a nice shot I would have something like this of my friends at my desk. The colors are nice and bright and always make shots more fun. Maybe its just odd that the adults are in a kiddie ride. I know you said it was cloudy, I am not sure if it was still bright out or the blue on the left was just faded. I would have liked to have both faces in focus, especially since she is smiling and it feels like a fun photo.

I think what would help the score is a different subject (I think voters were looking for a very distinct difference between the two subjects) or possibly a title with a little more explanation.

Nice composition, a bit more contrast would help the scene

Looks to be a bit grainy but that could just be the texture of the fake flower. White parts are blown out, need to work on proper exposure.

Not sure of the oddness here. It just seems like a quick snapshot of a couple of normal people.

This couple doesn't look odd to me. Maybe I am missing something?

Funny, when you pronounce rooster in dutch and take the literal translation you get 'roester', not a real word but it indicates 'roestig' and that translates back to English as 'oxidated' and that's what this rooster is. :)

cool rooster :-)

the picture seems to lack contrast, some dodging/burning (or different angle) could bring out the rooster and draw more attention to the photo in general imho
