I dont think I would crop it, I like it how it is the compo is very good and the DOF great, for me this shot works very well, a little crop off the bottom may work ok, I certainly wouldnt crop the side, you can always try it and see if you like it. My only thought is the focus it very slightly off, in reality it may be because of the limitations of monitor screens, I have shot images a little like this that look a little soft on screen but sharp in print.

The Truth is Out There
