This has good composition. I think you may have been better going for a longer DOF or making the person to be in focus.

GREAT perspective! If you could have worked the aperture down, even to the extent of having to use a tripod, the depth of field would have made it even more stunning

Very nice picture, and it's interesting. I like it, and good perspective.

I like the fact you haven't focussed at the woman. nice point of view :)

Great angle, but I would feel more empathy with the model's solitude if she were more in focus... right now I see isolation rather than solitude. And I see quietness rather than activity in the roadway.

I like the foreground angle from the bench, but for me the rest of the photo lacks any interest, and I don't care for the street lights (but again, that's just me) :|

good colors, good composition, nice idea, but...why? why a so small depth of field?

This has the potential to be a good picture, but almost everything is out of focus.

I like your title, but I don't see much scurrying in the picture. I like the colors and the detail of the wood bench. But I feel like the person's supposed to be the sharpest point. Or maybe I'm just completely lacking in any artistic sense. (The latter could very well be true). xD

very nice:)

I like your idea, but there is something that doesn't work with me. Great understanding of challenge though, so I wont dock you points on a matter of taste.

Not enough "scurry" in the background to pull off the title. I like the concept but I'm not sure the particular angle you chose really works for this. I think if you wanted her out of focus you probably needed more of the bench in the foreground in focus so there was a lot of contrast.

Nice use of line in this one, really directs you eye. Although that lamp post is a little distracting, but... what can you do :S
