I like the second one best, but I also like legs. For me the best compromise would be to have the tight crop in the upper left but keep right side. It may change the aspect ratio a bit. Do you have one with all of her in the shot? Attractive model.

The 1st, because the lines are long and the 4x6 crop fits it better.

I like Paul's, too.

I think they both have merits depending on what you're trying to convey.

In #1, my eye lands comfortably on her face, her eyes right in one of those classic rule of thirds intersections. I then scan across her curves, pretty much in the horizontal middle third of the photograph. When I'm at her legs, the bright sofa back leads me back to her face. #1's a pretty classic combination.

#2 has more immediacy, as if she's into your personal space, a little close (tho that's debatable ) and it takes you longer to understand the full picture.

I prefer #1, but what were you trying for? Well played both.

1 for me. I don't think it needs a tight crop.

Very nice shot.

Both work for me, although I do prefer 1. What a beautiful model! I just feel that in 2 the legs are wasted, in saying that though I think Pauls crop is great.

... and allowed in glamour shots?

I vote for number 2. Just like the cropped version better.
