Olaf,
Thanks for that I agree, it looks better this way. I am still undecided on the contrast and brightness. First I added more contrast and less brightness to "darken" the image but I am feeling I may have gone too dark. I did not really want mid tones too much, just blown out either side (know what I mean?) Undecided but what are your views. Thankyou very much for your coments.

I think the cropped version is stronger with nothing to distract the eye. I would suggest a slightly different crop though: I would keep the aspect ratio square and the symmetry-line of the face smack in the middle. IOW, I would add a little more at the bottom and crop a little off on the right.
