Subject: [Leica] Which Crop?

Peter,
Unfortunately, it depends.  As a stand alone image, the first, tighter
crop works better as the crowd to the right does not add to the story.

Possibly, as part of a larger group of images, the second crop would
relate the size and makeup of the crowd.

LUGers,

The same photo, two different crops. Goodwood Revival shot against the
light, 
5cm Summarit, ISO 400

or

Can I have some advice please?

Personally I prefer the latter; the former I think tends to draw the eye
too 
much to the pretty girl on the left (yes that is possible ;-) )

I have played about with levels etc and each is (deliberately) PS'd
differently 
As I thought suited each image.

Thanks for looking - and the advice if any!
