First I started with this image and used the quick selection tool to select everything but the person in the foreground. I than layered via copy to allow me to use the motion blur filter to make the whole background blurry. I then changed both layers to be black and white as I found it made the image look better and more meaningful. This is my final image;

I think this image works really well with the motion blur however, the person in the foreground doesn’t stand out as much as I anticipated so I am going to experiment, using the same technique, with other photographs I have taken.
