the first beat (the two 16th notes) should be marked as one beamed group, not as seperately beamed notes. The way you have it written, by normal pianistic convention, means that two hands must play the upper part.

generally speaking, unless the rythme is complex and the voice leading needs to be clearly marked, groups of notes of equal value should be beamed together in piano music.

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
