Participle clauses

Hello everyone. I have a question about participle clauses.

Regarding the following two sentences:

(A) Leaving early in the morning, she arrived there late at night.

(B) Having left early in the morning, she arrived there late at night.

Are they both correct? Please evaluate each of them in terms of grammar and naturalness.
