I’m not sure this shouldn’t be in the G&N section, you may want to request to move it.
The pose is good and the lighting isn’t awful. I would however usually avoid a body part being more brightly lit than the face (assuming the face is the important part to you) therefore I’d say the right shoulder is a bit hot for me. Also the ‘red’ object attracts attention, without having a purpose, creates a slightly unbalanced composition.
But for a ‘novice’ it’s great work.
