Both images are well taken. The second image a split second too late.

The first is a great portrait. Consider cropping it vertically.

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

That first one is exceptional. Frankly, I would keep the horizontal crop but just crop it a bit tighter vertically, and place him a bit further to the right in the frame. Kind of like this....

Thanks for the advice. Here is one more. Is the crop on this one better or worse?

QUOTED IMAGE

I like the crop's orientation but you either over cropped the original or resized (enlarged) an original web image as the image seems pixelated loss of clarity/sharpness.

Yeah, it's a bit of a sever crop. I wanted it to work but I was too far away for this one.
