Thanks, everyone, for your comments. I guess the consensus is that I should have cropped out the edges of the bowl. Ironically, my first take on this was a much closer view of just the face, but it seemed too boring to me. So I chose the wider view. Nevertheless, I'm quite pleased with the voting. Thanks!

Great idea, great composition, but to me it looks flat both color wise and in depth. Moving your lighting more to one side or the other (I would say to photographers right) would help with the depth issue.

Good idea, color and clarity. Just one small thing would be the reflections on the bowl or container and the blue, they compete with the subject

super creative -- would like the pasta to fill the frame as the glass stuff on the lower right and left detract (imho)

Well executed, I wonder if a tighter crop without the edges of the glass would have a greater impact.

this is a great hidden face! i'm scoring it a 7, but think that this would definitely be worth reshooting with a different container, one large enough to allow you to crop out the distracting edges. you might also want to work on evening out the lighting. even so, good job!

I think you could have given this more impact with it cropped round the 'face'

A much closer cropping would work better here.

Good seeing. It may be more effective if it were a bit closer.

haha...this is great.

Nice. Maybe a tighter crop on the pasta, to remove the bowl completely... IMO
