 Not too much to it.
new adjustment layer, paint brush to reveal original BG, cloned out small annoying billboards, neat image to get rid of some serious noise, cropped and resized.
Would have loved to get a shot without the ugly fence but even after some pleading with the security dude at the bus depot, I couldn't get in.

De-sat is effective, and hasn't harmed the effect of light in the sky too much, though perhaps some work to darken the (formerly) blue areas might have paid off? Like the composition very much, but would wish for a little more impact from the yellow of the buses - they all seem a touch muted to me. 6

Nice shot, but your selective sat is a bit wide of the mark in places. Was it necessary anyway? Some halo around buses, but well composed.

Really cool shot. This one would have been a killer for the selective desaturation challenge!

A very nice scene with a super sky. The composition to emphasiize the sky was great choice. But, the decision to include the black triangle at the bottom works aginst you. I'd also like to see the yellow a bit brighter.

Nice, simple but effective image..usually the tendency is to oversaturate the colour in the picture but you have not fallen into that trap..in fact, if anything, the buses could use a little brightening to make them stand out.
That could just be down to my monitor though :) Good work

I like the sky and the subject here. But the noise and graininess, coupled with the somewhat messy selection during desaturation spoils it for me imho.

This is very unusual and I think very nicely done
