The image to show when a web page is shared in facebook

I've a web page and I want to share it in facebook but the image shown is not ok. In the HTML code of the web I have: 

<link href="http://www.example.com/img/logo2.png" rel="image_src" />

In the options to select the image, there are other images, but not logo2.png I've tried to delete facebook cache with facebook debugger, but the result is the same.

Edit:

If I add ?v=1 to the end the URL when I share it, the logo option is shown. It means that facebook debugger is not deleting the cache. Also, I want that the logo image be the first option.

Can you help me?

Solved:

<!-- facebook tags -->
<meta property="og:image" content="http://www.example.com/img/logo.png"/>
<meta property="og:url" content="http://example.com">   
<meta property="og:title" content="Portfolio | web">    
<meta property="og:description" content="Portfolio">

I think that you may be using the wrong tag. I haven't done this in a while, but I believe that it should be a <meta tag with a property="og:image" and then content set to your image. The following (really old) question addresses this issue/conforms to what I remember: How does Facebook Sharer select Images and other metadata when sharing my URL?

Let me know if it works :)
