questions: So who's the subject? The guitarist? The girl? both?; who should be in focus?
Nice contrast in the conversion
The girl is intended to be the primary subject, but I don't
see a reason to make the guitar player secondary by being
out-of-focus.
Maybe, though, you're saying that neither is in focus. At
1/125th at 5.6 both should be in pretty much in focus when
they are this close together. (The camera was set to
shutter speed )
What difference does it make who should be in focus? Both are close enough that the rather weak point comes across loud and clear. If the girl were on the other side of the guitarist and the guitarist were looking toward the girl there'd be an interaction that'd make a stronger point. But not much stronger.

That might be a stretch to set up. The guitarist is blind.
125+ @5.6 would be my choice, but my monitor sees the girl a little OOF . If so I wonder if your focus point slipped
Dunno. The original photo was a wider view since I was using my Nikon
35mm 1.8 prime lens. There was a bicycle (not the blind guitarist's)
chained to a fence at the left, but I cropped that out.
I had been eying the bicycle and the guitarist wondering if I
could get a shot that showed the irony of a blind man with a
bicycle, but saw the girl and went for that shot.
