I can see them. Looks like you and I had just about the same day today. (you'll know what I mean if you see my latest thread) I like the cropped one, but it looks a little oof to me. Nice emotion shot though.
I think that's the strongest emotion I've seen yet in this challenge. Boy, I don't remember crying so hard my face wrinkles up like that, but I'm sure I did at some point. :cry
I think both shots are striking. The original conveys to me more a sense of frustration at being penned in... The cropped one really gets into the child's face and you feel the wetness!
strong emotional capture here for sure!! is it just me or does the eye area seem a bit OOF (out of focus)?
I thought that it looked a little soft also. Then I saw that it was a from a very large crop. I would stick with the original. It conveys the emotion well and the color works.

I think the color adds to the truth of the emotion somehow. We all have been there, both in the chair and behind the camera.
