Hard to say if you entered the right challenge or not. A great image nonetheless.

Sometimes we all need to stop, and take a look around us.

I like the perspective and the blurred people, but it seems that also the surroundings isn't much in focus either especially the man who is sitting on the bench. The bottom large palm is way too much distracting.

Leftovers from the Nixter challenge, or the posthumous challenge?

I honestly don't care, it's a very cool image that does, for some odd ineffable reason, capture the spirit of the challenge for me..
