Which Photo is Better: A or B?

Runner.jpg

I was just recently commissioned for a campaign and shot about 1000 images to capture final image for this well known sports company. In the end, it came down to the two images above. As is usually the case, the final image is tough to choose, with lots of factors under consideration, lots of stakeholders picking their favorite. There was much debate.

I’ve posted stuff like this before and was really excited by the resulting discussion, so I figured I’d throw it out there again… WHICH IS BETTER, A or B?

Vote in the comments. Love to know ‘why’ if you care to explain your thoughts. 600 px wide versions of each image after the jump…hit [‘continue reading’ below]. After you all weigh in, I’ll tell you which one was used and why.

This is PHOTO A, below.

    Prefer: Image A
    Reason: Since this is an ad for a sports company, the image of a clear well toned body makes a better impact as compared to half hidden image of the model…….

    I’d go with version A.

    AAAAAAA
    The flare on B is quite distracting.

    A for sure

    Another vote for A. The flare in B is just too overpowering and distracting.
