Photojournalism Feature

In critiques this morning I was told I should have left the image color when I had turned it black and white.I wanted to post it up as color to show people the way it was meant to be seen. Although, I do see how I left the color of the ice cream truck out. I thought the image in black and white gave it a little more mood or emotion. I guess just like everything there are two ways to look at it. I cant decide which one I like better. Of course it's to late for critique, but I still love to look at things and try to understand them in different perspectives. Any feedback on it now that it is in color?

The Feature Creature

Wow...So this week our feature project is due. A feature picture is basically any picture that tells the story. So - I went to the sugar hill festival with Katie and Chris. Gotta say - I didn't really get any shots I wanted. So - now I have two options:

- Turn in the shots I deem unworthy

- Hope and pray that I got a ballin' shot in Italy.

Well both sorta happened. I was given two options so I'm just going to put them both up here and turn one in. I'm interested to see how critique will go. 

After I took the picture of the ice cream man - I pushed that girl on the ground and took her Popsicle.
