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.

THIS is PHOTO B, below.

    A, definitely.
    Better pose, better face. Flare in B doesn’t look nice to me at all.
    The only reason why it might be B — if they needed to put a text on it.

    definetly “A”….if thats for a sports company.
    both the pics are good..but “A” got my vote when theres a lot of decisions behind choosing 1and that too for a branded sports comp.

    Easy, Photo A is better. The flare in B is too distracting
