Hi John,
Well done lad! Silhouettes when seen and shot properly make interesting
photographs. As is this one! :-)
Some times a part of the real subject or part of the silhouette is cut off
spoiling the complete scene.
In your case I don't think it would come any better simply because we see
both aspects perfectly without cropping any bits, there fore spoiling the
complete scene as we see here!

Good observation and well shot!
cheers,
ted
