BD,

having looked at it again...

She's been writing (pen and paper on table) and she needs glasses (also on 
table) at least for reading/writing. FWIW I think that she has been 
travelling 
for some while (see rucksac) and has stopped for a coffee at Starbucks or 
wherever you took this, has started to fall asleep etc...I DON'T think she 
has 
her eyes on his wallet. My guess is he's too far away for her to make a 
quick 
grab and a dash.

Now with that interpretation, which is one of many, would you crop it 
differently as the guy is no longer important? Cropping can change the story.

Interesting that you used a long lens though and not a 50.

PS I still like it a lot ;-)
