Hierarchy of Subject Value 1

I chose this one for Subject Value because the Afghan girl up front is telling us something about her even though we can't see her face, even more so than if we could. The other girl is curious and tentative. The composition of this photograph shows the hierarchy of attention I would like to convey. The most interesting element to me is the fingernail polish, making her like every other girl this age (though we know she isn't). I love the silhouette of the girls above. Would you crop this differently? This is the original as shot without any manipulations.
