The original is moody and creepy while the redux is surreal and fun. The original has the hand screaming. This redux has the mouth looking like it is in the action of ready to laugh/giggle. I just look at the girl holding her mouth and I am thinking she is trying to hold her laughter in. There are similarities between the two but the mood/feel of each is vastly different - not a bad thing mind you just different. I do have one suggestion on how to improve on the image (man, she is picky, right?;-) ). The mouth resting on the hand doesn't quite mesh with the angle of the hand. The angle of the shot of the mouth is turned a bit more to the right while the hand is turned a bit more the opposite direction. I think it would have been best to take a dozen angled shots and then see what better melds with the surface angle of the hand. It is tough sometimes to match the angle of a composite but when it all matches it then just looks more polished.
