This is my first post on this site. I took this last month after talking with these two men on the street. My main question concerns the cropping. I wanted it tight to focus on the faces and arms. Does it work? Thanks for any comments!

the crop is fine, maybe a bit to tight but fine. the thing that's actually bothers me is the fact we can't see his entire face, feels weird without the mouth.

I really like this a lot. Great lighting, and I like the crop. The cut off edges makes it feel really personal -- totally not posed.
