Very nice technique in post processing. I like the black and white foreground and the colored island in the distance. Nice subject, too. Warm and fuzzy.

This is great. I love the B&W foreground and the every so slightly colored distant "island". Beautifully done.

Sweet shot - love the reflections in the helmet and ever so slightly in the glasses.

Comment by UNTITLED:
This is very nice. The technicals are all dead on, but it seems more the intangibles that make this rather interesting. Some thing about the riders look/expression that blends very well with the tones of the photo. Well done!

I'm not sure this needs selective desaturation, I think I'd prefer it without. But I really like the image itself, the portrait of this elderly couple in quiet conversation sitting infront of such a beautiful, almost timeless, view.

Maybe a slightly different viewpoint to square up the bench, otherwise an attracive idea.

8 - Good photograph. Some nice character elements, a few distracting ones, like the selective desat, but do wonder (if the clothing color suited) whether leaving the couple in color as well, may have made this even better, but your call - obviously. Judging by your title, perhaps you wanted the island to dominate/visually offset.
