Interestingly, there appears to be no difference at all between the two versions on my screen, which is...strange.
On my screen the second pic te green is darker with greater contrast; the better pic, in my view.

So the chances of the entire subject staying in focus and not showing any signs of motion blur are much reduced.

Artistically that is fine and can be used, intentionally or not, to create some spectacular shots but the absolute level of detail available overall will always be reduced to some degree.
I quite often obtain this effect, accidentally, and I'm never sure whether to use the resulting pics. Seeing the number on the front in focus and the one on the side out of focus, or vice versa, can be quite disturbing, when you are deciding which pics to retain! I have a very high deletion rate!
