Life in Focus

I can't give credit to this man because we have never met. I did notice him across the street as a throw back that stood out from the hip, modern part of the city. Most people walked right past but I could help wondering what his story was and what his music sounds like. If only he would play...
What makes this photo work for me is that the subject is in focus and I blurred the rest out. Who cares about the trucks in the background? And they surely would be distracting if they were in focus too.
