Greetings from the Critique Club!
Hi! This image does make the viewer really stop and think about it for a moment. The title is perfect as without the shot would make me say, "Hey, there's a shadow cutting across the wheelchair!"
I like the overall effect of the shot but from your desciption of post processing, it might have been overdone. You sharpened it twice and then added a blur twice. Instead of applying a blur to help remove the noise you might try Neat Image. It helps clear up the noise in a shot without losing the edges if applied correctly.
I like the overall composition of the shot, the dark edge on the left adds more to the shot for me than takes away. I think you left it darker to go with your theme of the shadows but the contrast is missing. A bit more contrast to make the blue really pop out would really make this shot speak to me.
The cropping is well done, I also like the abstract nature of the shot, it's well balanced and the lines take me through the whole shot.
So neat image, contrast to make the blue pop and take out the blur process would be my suggestions.
Hope this helps!
Good Luck In Future Challenges!

I think that this is a very symbolic gesture of handicapped people.
People always put them in the shadows. |

| I love this .. it's not just a roadsign, but a statement about life and it took your own eye to see it and interpret it for us in a way we'd understand and relate to. Good job, too dark, but I give you extra merit for even seeing this in the first place. - 7 |

| Nice emotive image. Focus is a little soft, but perhaps that was intentional? |
