I assume this is the same effect you used in the Glenfinnan train shot Gary. I like the blur in that much more than here. I'm with Mike when he suggests the blurred background would have been done to better effect in camera with the use of the appropriate DOF. As for the raison detre of street photography; I think the Ena Sharples picture fully justifies this candid capture of human exression.

I am at a loss to remember why I would have shot this with as much DOF?
It is six years ago but I normally shoot medium and longer telephoto's near to wide open. Other images of mine show this. I more often loose more shots due to lack of DOF.

I'm with George here.
What have you done with photoshop?
Here is a suggestion which might work better, at least it would be interesting to try and see what it does also for me.
Duplicate the image and make the duplication B&W
Once again duplicate the coloured image and place that layer above the B&W and use Gaussian blur on it, around 18 might do but see for yourself and set the layer blending mode to overlay, you can adjust it finer with the opacity slider.

I think this is a nice picture spoiled (for me) by over-enthusiastic photoshoppery.
I'd love to see the original.

Like the composition, but would prefer a sharp image allover. The softening effect, particularly in the lower left quarter merely makes me question my eyesight.
