I love the blur! Looks very nice with the border and the black and white, too. The person at the end of the road adds the perfect touch - the shot wouldn't be as good without him, imho. :)

On my screen, there seems to be a sort of washed-out haze in the center of the photo, which detracts a good deal from this, imo. The colors are great, though.

You might want to try a different composition next time - this centered composition does not do much for the photo. I would suggest experimenting with the rule of thirds. Unusual angles might also give this photo more impact - maybe try shooting upwards at the subject, and at a forty-five degree angle - it might make it seem more threatening.

I'm not sure I like the specific angle you shot this at, and I also wonder how this might have looked in color? But this is a brilliant concept!

My sentiments exactly. As a photograph, it seemed like a snapshot to me, with the lighting, focus, and composition. (although from your comments it sounds like it actually took quite a lot of work to get these elements just right), but since this is a photography challenge I gave this a 4. But the subject itself obviously took you lots of time and creativity, and is marvelous and fascinating!
Just my two cents. :)
