Sincere thanks for the thorough feedback everyone. I had initially cropped it similar to Christoph's second version as the man on the far right is too far into the frame. But then thought the balance of the four vertical "panels" making up the background that attracted me to the scene should be kept whole. I'll play with the crop a bit more.
Also, one second they were interacting with each other and the next, in unison, turned to look at something outside of the frame. On to the next image.
