Hi Tina,
Both neat moments, but my preference is for #2, simply because it's such a 
beautiful re-action by the boy! Not to mention the photographer's re-action 
to his action! :-)

It works because it's the opposite we usually see when being caught shooting 
a subject, mainly sullen or surly look. Here he's more jubilant at having a 
good time and having his picture taken,
