The 56mm is ideal If all you care about is blowing out the backgrounds.  But I'm more into environmental work, so the surroundings need to be clear enough to understand.

For me, the best shot is the first one, and it was taken with the 60mm.  There's plenty of snap, and I can see the subject's environment.
