Default Cropping Critique Please

My brother and I have a competition going where we choose a theme and concentrate on that for the week. Then we compare results. Last week the theme was rule of thirds.

I shot this picture of my daughter and I really liked how it turned out. My brother suggested a crop to remove the railing on the left and the negative space on the right. I tend to disagree as I like how the right side adds to the mood. What do you think?

Here is the original...

And this is the cropped version with some white balance correction...

Distracted Dancer Cropped

Thanks.
