I like this - it's simple and the blurred background makes your subject stand out nicely. I would probably have darkened the background slightly in PS to make it stand out even more.

Two brilliant shots today and yesterday,I had to get used to NOT having an SLR anymore a couple of years ago(It´s a similar process,just that my bridge-camera is sooo much lighter !!)
