main subject-
the first thing that comes to my mind when looking at this picture is how his blue eyes beautifuly compliment his sweatshirt
foreground-
I'm not a big fan of the compliment of colors between blue and the hay but its a nice idea overall considering its fall,
background-
this maybe the only part of the picture that distracts, the vertical lines should be straight upwards and in uniform, these are not but its ok because they don't cause much distraction. the horizontal lines are very distracting, they appear to give the form of a cracked wall which is not very pleasing on my eyes. perhaps darkening the background a bit more would have helped.
overall-
because his skin is pale i think you did a great job at capturing his complection, everyone seems to dislike that his head was cropped off a little bit but its easily confused with the popular style going on these days which I will overlook and give you the benefit of the doubt :)
relation to this contest theme-
"what?" can be interpreted into anything I guess, and you tried to define "what is love" by your title name being "love'. so i believe this is to be your child which you love very much, if thats the case it did not express that relation very well in my opinion. reading a title shouldnt be the clue in the contest.
