My eye doesn't really know where to go with the second one - I find myself shifting between the young couple on the left or the group with the woman turned toward the two men. The rest of the photo to the right of that woman feels distracting. I might consider cropping either tighter than the first to remove the small bit of the woman's face on the right side or looser to include that woman in her entirety. Glenn
