#2 because of the varied leading lines and ambivalence. Most exciting of the group.

First, I didn't read the previous posts. I didn't want my opinion to be biased by what others said.

I pick #2. The first one doesn't have much of interest to me. It's some guy's back and another guy passed out on a bench. Not sure what's going on.

The others, 3 & 4 tell a story but again, it's people's backs.

I like 2 because there are faces to look at, you can see they are carrying guns which piques interest, and the logos on the shirts tell the viewer that the people are part of some sort of organization. For me, it's a more compelling image because I can gather a lot of information about what's going on from it. The others leave me wondering what you're trying to say.
