The shots I've seen using the Brenizer Method are much wider environmental shots. I don't think it's a fair comparison when you do this with a tighter headshot. I can't even imagine you used that many images to create this image. They often use 50 plus images for these.
Also, it's really about creating shallow depth of field surrounding the subject much like you see in film when shot at f/1.4 or whatever. It's usually not done with a subject like this and a background so close to the subject.
I understand the technique behind brenizer and knew that what I was doing doesn't completely match the most commonly used application of it, but as I said I wanted to experiment with it and see what I might be able to make by applying the idea to a close-in portrait. I actually do think it's a fair comparison; just because I didn't use a high number of frames or shoot a wide perspective doesn't change the method in which I shot and stitched the photos together.
