This is a trick question... :D

Because the answer is most likely (B), made by HCB. :) (I know
the fable about Flickr group that dismissed this photo as unsharp.)
However indeed it proves a point: for some photos "correctness"
doesn't matter, it's all in the moment or "look-and-feel". (Even I
have a few "failures" that I find better when compared with their
"correct" equivalents.)
But still, for landscape or macro photography (which seems to be
my main interest), I still find sharpness and correct exposure very
important.
