Its a total Frakenstien, but I like it. I like the photo too. The selective desaturation is key to this photo.

The angle this was taken is cool and I like how all of the picture is in black and white with the litlle bit of yellow in the front.

Nice shot - the yellow frame adds to the effect, but there is maybe a little too much stuff in the background which confuses the main subject. A better angle may have helped.

This is a very busy shot and it is hard to pick up the subject out from the background- even with the selective color you have used. Too bad because it is a pretty interesting looking bike you found!

Very busy background makes subject hard to pick out, decrease DOF or highlight the odd bike somehow.
