There's no objective way to tell which is the Leica shot.  I'd like to
think 4 is the one, but that's just because I have a prejudice linking
Leicas to social justice documentary photos.

I prefer 4 to 3, both because of the message (I like nice obvious stuff,
and the enigma in 3 makes me think too hard), and because of the tonality
of the image.  

1968 was one hell of a year.
