Thanks for comments/rating ( except 1&2 ! ;) ).

Good job! nice that you've softened the surroundings, makes him seem more important. Even though to me he seems a little floating? But it's a very good picture, i hope to see more :)

Interesting effect, looks like he's floating so a bit disconcerting. Perhaps leaving the wall sharp (ish) near

the guy would work better? I suppose with PS you could, e.g., duplicate the image to a layer and soften the whole lot, then make another layer with everything sharp and

make a transparency mask with a fade around the areas you want to blend sharp/unsharp, e.g. the bench nearer the camera. Or is the chap cut out of a different scene and pasted on that wall? Looks too bright under his legs, somehow. Anyway, eye-catching image...

 

Love this blur around. superb idea
