I am not happy with how out of focus the street performer is compared to teh billboard behind him :o( ..... but I still like this shot and their performance was GREAT !

This is great, it looks like you've stepped back in time.

A very "dated" photo with the billboard's design and the wardrobe of the man. Looks like it's from the '40's. Nice shot!

I actually like the focusing. It really brings the sign in the background into focus.

I think it's very creative and a very good composition!
I like the vintage feel of it

Very vintage! I think you are right, though, the focus is on the sign and the aperture was only 4.1, so that left the performer out of range. Like you said, it is still a good picture!

I know how you feel... it could be you needed to focus on the pole then move your camera to compose your shot. None the less hes moving and that could be the cause of the blur.

I think the out of focusness in this man is actually a strength in your photo; it emphasizes the message on the billboard and invites the eye to go there, then back to him, then back to the message. Movement. Story. Excellent work!
