Thanks Lee, Jano and Rod.
Jano, I do agree with Rod...prefer the crop to original.

My eyes just follow from the menu, can, hand, and arm to the focal point the face. The girl for me was a slight distraction & took away from great composition that now exists in this shot. It's the black space making this shot work & reinforcing the composition.
Don't listen to Jano about this shot RK as this is why we got a divorce:-)

Since I saw the image prior to your cloning out the girl, I now find something missing. I didn't mind the girl at all. In fact, I liked her there as it added some interest. The light is on the focal point IMO. Even a crop now wouldn't suit me as now there is only blank space. :( jano

Thanks Jano and Rod.
Rod, thanks for the suggestion...the crop does look much better.

This is like two shots in one, cut the shot down the middle & you have two great shots. For me for one great shot I would crop the girl out to the edge of the menu & just clone her shoulder out. Then the shot really works for me. Fantastic RK.
