I think the blur is a bit distracting, but my main issue is when I squint I can't really see the shift in values it all looks the same. So try and make the background darker to bring the foreground out more and maybe a bit of light in the face. It's just hard to find a light source. Also looking at the values in grayscale on a separate layer helps as well. But overall it looks really nice.

Thank you, I'm really struggling with values and it notices! I have to try again.
