Great but why you hauling up 20m of anchor cord?

Kinda hard to see. Cams look solid?

Hex looks good

Green looks like it walked, placing cams at the back of the crack can be hard to retrieve. If the whole crack is parallel, I'd have it a little bit closer to you

You haven't shown the bottom piece so can't comment on that one.

By clipping the quickdraw to the bottom piece you could have then equalised with a 120cm sling, not this 5m+ of cordlette

Just a thought because you can't tell this from a pic. I wonder how the hex might sit if it was reversed. The reason I raise the possibility is because doing so would mean the wire would increase the camming action of the hex. However if it doesn't sit as good then it's current orientation is probably ok.

Turbo bomber but the hex isn’t really in an active pro config but I think it’s in a construction regardless.

Solid! Looks like the third pitch of After Seven on Manure Pile in the Valley yeah? Love that climb!

As a new climber and starting to lead some easy trad routes (uk - mainly Stanage) these posts really help

Looks overcammed And hex crack looks flared But plenty of redundancy

Not even close to overcammed. Call me when the lobe tips swing past the stem.

It's fine. That QuickDraw doesn't really belong in there, but it's fine.
