Aren't all school buses yellow? Opps it is a church bus, could be any color,
and in NC school activity buses are white. Oh well, forget I said anything...
GRIN!

How is it obvious that it's a school bus? Only someone local to the area,
and familiar with the local school buses, might know that. On an
international list such as this, and with the exposure that we all hope our
photos (through exhibitions, publication, appearing in ads, whatever) I bet
there is not a single person except someone local to the area that would
have known the kid was on a school bus.
One of the reasons I suggested a wider framing was to give the photo more
(and obvious) context.
I saw the frames of the window, but there's nothing to suggest that they
are at the correct angle. The street, or the angle of your camera, could
cause that frame to appear to be straight. But, be that as it may, it's
odd that you, the photographer, didn't know if the bus was going uphill or
if your camera was tilted <vbg>

As far as the b&w conversion goes, I'm kind of liking the colour - it
lets one know it's a school bus (I don't know how relevent that is to
the photo, but I kind of like that info being available.
Well, as someone else said farther
down, it turns out that the bus is going uphill, and the camera was
actually level (look at the window frames on the building behind the
bus) <vbg>.
