    It took me a while to get what the boy was longing for. I can appreciate why this probably needs to be in colour. It feels over saturated and there's a green colour cast on the boy's face probably from the green bag, but it's still distracting.

    Did he get his ice cream?

    You might be right on the saturation, though it is a scene with very bright colors. The fluorescent green protest sign did throw a unpleasing cast on the boy and is especially noticed in the chin in the upper left. I played with it (and b&w) and finally settled as you see it because it probably is a reasonably accurate rendition.

    Not an earthshattering shot, but I do like it when the facial expression/emotion is well captured in the subject (don't know if he got one...).
