The main subject is nicely captured and you have filled the frame but my feeling is that the back ground is too distracting ( my eyes are drawn to the highlighted rooftop ) and would have benefited by using a larger aperture and/or making the background darker.

I see no problem in just cropping that bright part out. It still leaves the subject overly centered, but that's the best one can do without re-shooting.

Some may hate the bokeh in this shot, but I just love it.

Great shot

i love the bokeh!!

I think if u crop it tighter, u will lose the space above the hanger thingy (which balances the shot imho) so id just photoshop it to get rid of the white area.

I think a little more tight crop would be better.
