make sure to read the rules - Critique Forum Rules ; I would recommend adding your EXIF info with your post here...

but anyways, the crop seems sloppy, the hand comes into play but your arm is with the hand thats coming into frame is cropped off... I'm not a fan of when a arm/leg is cut off then hands/feet comes back into frame oddly. I would recommend pulling back if possible and shoot a wider focal length to get more of your upper body.
