Seems like everyone is paired up in this image except for our subject - looking for love, perhaps? I blurred the background a bit to emphasize the singularity of the subject - thoughts? Huntington Beach Pier in SoCal.

The transition from the subject to the blurred area is too obvious. It almost looks like the subject was inserted into the image. If the area further than the subject was the only part blurred it might look more realistic. If he is in focus his shadow should be in focus also.
A very cool idea though!

Well done, I like the blurring. Interesting subject matter. :-)
