Hello

is that paphiopedilum micranthum var. album or hybrid ?

 
Looks like a true alba to me. A picture of the leaves would also help in a final assessment. But, as per the flower's formation and balance, I would say a micranthum alba.

Most will probably say No. 1 but I like No. 2.

Also, the "official" name for this plant should be Paphiopedilum micranthum f. glanzeanum.
 
I like #1 better, but I love the photo on #2, the angle/perspective of the flower is really neat & the lighting very complimentary!
