I think you are right about the "too tight" comment - I think that would have helped - too tight makes it harder to tell that the hand belongs to a small child. I do, however. respectfully disagree with those who recommended getting rid of the hand. I believe the hand is the charm...it's what tells the story of "I'm a kid and I hate peas". I think a black or solid gray road with yellow stripes would have helped to clean up the pic a bit. Overall, I think the voters were a wee bit harsh on this one...pea lovers! Good idea and I look forward to seeing your future entries.
In retrospect, I think that I should have done at LEAST 2 things differently with this idea: Change the title to "Don't Play With Your Food", bc some people may have thought that this was crass. Also, the shot was a bit too tight, as it made my little boy's hand look gargantuan.
