I've got this shot about as close to what I want as I can with the exception of the guys glasses refecting in the upper right corner. The more I look - the more they bug me. So looking to you all for some ideas.

do I;

1) dodge them to reduce their brightness

2) try to recrop leaving them out ( I do like the balance of the current crop though)

3) leave it alone - it is just fine

4) other (including the shots crap - what am I wasting time over it for...)

Any help from objective eyes would help.

I suggest you dodge the glasses. I too like the crop and balance and it's a nice capture.

I ended up cloning another guys glasses over - what do you think? Dodging just came out weird... a skill I need to be better at. Here is a link to the corrected version.

Wow, dodging didn't improve it enough.

Have you tried healing brush using the dark glasses from the guy in the orange shirt? This would help reduce the ring around the previous glare that is still quite visible, and on the guy next to him too. Use it lightly to reduce the ring.

This way you still have the same OOF look, without the eye-attacting lightness of the glare, and after dodge ring.

Hope it helps,

I think i'd crop just to the left of the lenses. Take a tiny bit off the bottom & you've got the same proportion. Or don't ;)
