I think I might like it cropped a little bit less. The way it is after the crop, the face looks much bigger, more ominous. Before, he looked benign and friendly. I would say that about 1/2 way between your crop and the original would look best. As for the colouration, the second one certainly looks more "natural", but I kind of like the saturated colours - like you said, they work of the colour of the buildings better - kind of a surreal look. -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
