    I like the first one better because I think the expressions are nicer and the background is less distracting. I also like the body language of leaning into each other just a bit in the first one.

    I'm with met here. Also, I prefer A over B because the flash in B outbalances the ambient light a little too much for my personal taste. I like it much better in A thumb.gif

    A. The light in B is too strong as mentioned, and the white lining in the baby's hood coupled with that light makes one wonder if her face PS'ed into the hood.

    Thanks for the responses, I am tending to agree. I think for the first one the tripod was just a bit further back so the flash was able to disperse a little better. Otherwise, the angle was slightly different.
