Works — the shadow leads the eye straight to the doorway, so the empty frame still feels full.
Try — crop a hair tighter on the left, that sliver of sidewalk isn't doing anything.

Works — exposing for the highlight instead of lifting the shadow was the right call, keeps it graphic.
Try — next time try it a stop under — you've got detail in the shadow that's fighting the concept.
