You Be The Photo Editor

So here is the story... I had an assignment to photograph a woman in Queens who planted a memorial garden in memory of her father and son. This is a photograph of her, and of her garden. In the course of conversation she told me a story, and I was really taken by it, so I wanted to take a photograph for the blog and tell her story. But I couldn't decide which photograph was more interesting, or which told the story better.
