Took this photo today meeting my grandson at the bus stop. Shot it with selective color, and then took any extraneous yellows, and browns out with Elements 15. I know a lot of people don't care for selective color, but it's something to play with, and the bus driver liked the finished photo.

I like it. Selective color and all. Good job.
Usually I don't like selective color either but this works very well, nice shot.
Selective color works well in this case. The cold, wintery scene looks even more desolate in B&W and a lot of the identity of a school bus is the color.
Thanks to everyone for the comments! I thought as Cwilson341 said, the black and white made it appear more desolate, and I remember as a kid waiting for the bus to show up on a blustery cold Michigan morning, the sight of that nice warm yellow school bus was a welcome sight.
Count me in among the ones you like the shot, selective color included.
I like it very much, Spider!
