Nice but I prefer to see the face and the eyes.

Critique-wise, it might be more helpful to comment upon what is actually in the image. Comments like this are somewhat akin to stating, "I prefer cheese and pickles on my burger" when you've been served lasagna.

This week's episode of Food Network Star had the contestants judging/critiquing Bobby and Giada. It was very illuminating for them.

I go with this composition, no problem.
What I would suggest is that the separation light is too strong on the arm, it has similar values as the main light. I would have raised it as well to reduce its impact on the elbow… just me.

Light is free… capturing it is not!
