Hey Marco, greetings from the Critique Club!
First of all, welcome to DPC!
Regarding your shot:
Composing
It's very hard to check the settings, because this is a circular fisheye (probably a 4,5mm) but you listed it as a EF 400mm, and not the real one.
The circular effect is very common in these photos, and acted like a frame on this one, improving the impact of the photo.
A fisheye has to be very carefully used as to have the main focus of the image dead center. I see the attention being drawn to the metal thing, but it's too low to stand out. It should have been shot from a lower perspective. I like the tilt.
Processing / technique
You have something funky going on near the edges, a kind of contrast aberration that gradually changes the colour of the frame. This detracts a bit.
Remember that fisheye shots are very difficult to achieve in a good manner. An average shot will just make you say "That's a bit weird", whilst an extraordinary shot will make you say "Wow, what good usage of a fisheye lens!".
If you have any questions feel free to contact me.
Regards,
Joao
