The first, the expressions.

i think that the second one shows 2 children and a father bonding where the first picture just shows all 3 being silly.

The first because it shows all three people better. It can always be converted to B&W where as the other image can't be made into a color one. The first image is better at reporting what the scene actually looked like. However there is a different child in each image so why not keep both.

Very cute photos!!

This is just my opinion and what I see. I have to say neither. Without any context, I look at these photos and see a man, a girl and a boy that had a really great time doing something. I would want to assume that it's a father and his children having a great time on an outing.

If I were looking for a photo that conveys love, I would be looking for a quieter and more intimate interaction. i.e. the man hugging the kids and both with their arms around him. There is a certain look on the face that conveys love, rather than a happy occasion such as the look between father and daughter as he takes her arm to walk her down the aisle.

One of the best moments I've ever seen was a video of a young man's parents coming into the hospital room after the birth of a baby and the son introducing his newborn to his dad and the child was named after the grandfather. The look of love between father and son was unmistakable.

As I stated, this is just my opinion and how I see your photos. I do like the second photo over the first.

I like #2 better . . . fewer distractions and thus more impactful. At least for me.

I think they both convey being silly more that love, JMHO.

Color conveys the warmth better.
