It's photo-quiz time again

Shooting in setting-sun light is tricky. Here are two versions of a shot; tell me which one you like better. If you like, you can peek under the cut for my comments.

Version A:


Version B:



The only difference between the two is light balance. The first one is what the camera thought it saw; the second one more closely matches how the human eye sees colors. Notice that in the first his skin has an unnatural grayish cast to it.

The trouble is that giving the colors a more human cast de-emphasizes one of the things I think is interesting about the shot, which is how the sunlight hits the subject's face. I could, potentially, play tricks to re-emphasize the sunlight while trying to keep more of the perceptual color palette, but I'm not sure how.
