I think the guy himself with the two glasses is a very powerful image when
standing on his own. I'd crop her out. She's looking ok but just dilutes the
image.  Dilutes it by half. Have it all him. The whole "never crop" thing
went out with digital.

A shot of just him and your going to win the Pulitzer and the Nobel  and a
free latté at Starbucks and they'll send it to you in the same package to
save postage costs

It would be the Nobel prize in Literature and the Pulitzer in Commentary.
