I like this image a lot, from the muted colors to the composition.
I do have two crits though:
1. Not sure if you could do this, but if the DoF were a little longer into the clock from the 12 towards the center I think it would cut a little into the mainly blurry image, creating a little more depth and visual interest.
2. The area in focus could be sharpened a little, which helps with crit #1
Nice concept of the focus in general. If I was to critique anything, I personally would have preferred maybe a little less off-focus/blur. Thanks for sharing it.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
