1. I would lean toward the second

But the pictures are slightly different, and so I think it's just a small tweaking of the light that makes the second look clearer

2. I choose A

Because I assume that it is the original and the second one is enhanced. Which would make it clearer, but not necessarily more accurate.

5. A also.

I think B's showing some (not sure the term is right) posterization, most noticeably in the highlights on the watch. I'm guessing B's color depth has been reduced, as well as it's contrast being upped and maybe had its color saturation increased a tad?

B looks a lot nicer, but I suspect A's the original.

3. I voted "B"

Then I got curious and checked the image sizes.

Colors in B look more vibrant and the detail in the watch is sharper. Text on the crayons marginally more legible also.

Lol, I'm a veteran of marathon sessions of screeshot comparisons on a videogame message board. :)

Btw, I'm assuming no enhancements were done with an editor.

An uncompressed image like a .bmp is needed for a true comparison if you are comparing various compression formats.

4. I should have said

"An uncompressed image like a .bmp is needed for a true comparison"

As a baseline.
