In order to create slightly more contrast and reduce distracting elements, portions of the image have been selectively darkened such as the people in the background. This is another example of checking the perimeter of the image for distracting elements. The blurred hands and feet add a sense of motion, yet this image wouldn't work if his face wasn't sharp. Notice the effect of the backlighting.
I plan on removing the feet in the background and then doing a before/after comparison to illustrate how an image can be improved by removing distraction elements. This is also an example of how many times you can use the words "distracting elements" in a single paragraph.
