Greetings from the Critique Club Kita!
First off, I think it̢۪s great that at 8 years old you are jumping into something like this.
I like what you are going for and the border works well with the photo. If I were shooting this I think I would have left it in landscape orientation. With the reflection it just seems like it should be landscape as forks standing straight up and left right reflections just don̢۪t feel right to me. I̢۪m not sure if the grain and the spots were intentional, but again, if I were shooting I̢۪d have used a shiny clean background. Also, the sharpness seems a little off. Did you use a tripod? If you did, you had some focusing issues, if not you should have.
Good idea done pretty well. I̢۪d have done a few things differently, but I̢۪m definitely not the expert.
I hope you find this helpful. If you have any questions or comments on my review please feel free to PM me.

I gave this a 3. The quality was not there 'enough' in my opinion. It also seemed a little 'too close', causing the focus to blur. The composition/placement of the fork within the 'frame', perhaps could have used some more attention - to try to get an overall 'balance' using 'empty space' - unless you were going for the 'mirror effect', which, in my opinion, needed to have better 'symmetry' (balance again), so a 'nudge rotation' up on the right may have helped. There also seems to be some 'grain' &/or issues with 'gamma' in the darker areas. |

I like the broken symmetry. Maybe it would look better in B&W? |
