That's a Grandmother and your wife? Go and marry someone your own age Paul!
Am I in for dinner now? ;-)

Seriously. This photo is a smiler (a word invented by me, meaning something
that makes me smile). 
Go by your own instincts, don't crop anything out of this frame.

Thanks Boris. They're looking at a cow. I took some shots that included 
the object of their affection, but didn't quite get it right.

I wish I could see what are they both looking at...

Thanks to all who commented. I'm happy with the crop as shown. I took a little 
off the left to eliminate the shoulder of another person and a bit off the 
bottom to bring the crop to about the baby's waist. This also helped preserve 
the frame proportions in a way that I found pleasing.

Paul,
Grandma will keep this one forever! An even more intimate moment might
result from cropping the bottom to just above the bunched sweater and
grandma's hand.
Nicely exposed with ideal DOF.
