I agree that the 2nd image is preferable. The first image has
a wonderful expression on the sitter's face, but the focus is
a bit too close, emphasizing her kimono and not her face.

The 2nd image gets the eyes and the kimono in nice focus
together. I also like the contrast between the two sides of
her face - but then, lately, I seem to be suffering some sort
of fetish for harder lighting :-)

Just, IMHO, etc., etc.
