nice shot. the out of focus-ness of this piece gives it a painterly kind of quality. in that respect this could be better if you went further with that idea...In other words, you might consider making it more blurry, since right now you straddle that fence of almost being crisp but not really...so right now this is almost a great shot...
oh, and yes, the red is better too...nice retouching
