2 photos in full PPE - but in which am I smiling?

For my quick 'Intensive Interaction during a pandemic' blog this week, I am just showing two photos of me taken at work today. 

But I have one question: 

On which photo am I using dramatised facial expressions to communicate a clear smile?

As an Intensive Interaction adaptation, it isn't perfect by any means; it certainly isn't 'classic' Intensive Interaction, but in the current circumstances it is perhaps the best we can do - its at least an attempt to mitigate the communication constrains that full PPE brings with it. 

It certainly made me laugh!
