Hello from the Critique Club.
This image has so many positive things working for it, the shallow depth of view concentrating on the peas, the texture of the hands, the arms providing nice leading lines for the viewer's eyes to follow. However, I find my eyes moving towards the bottom part of the image because the pile of peas in the bowl is larger than the pile in her hands. I think you will find that by cropping the image to remove part of the bowl will help keep the viewer's eyes on the peas in her hands. I would suggest cropping so that the peas on the left side of the bowl are removed. Since these peas are in better focus than the ones at the bottom of the bowl, they become a competing focal point to the peas in her hands. This will also help shift the peas in her hand from the center of the image to a point that meets the rule of thirds.
Feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding this critique.

| Lovely idea simply presented. I like the way your viewpoint excludes everything but hands, peas, bowl and body. |
