The bokeh is smoother on the near out of focus than on the far, the Pentax 70-210mm does it the other way around. I actually like the out of focus leaves though. The second picture is stronger of course but for a reason, that women is asking: "why the hell is that guy pointing that long lens at me?" What I really would like would be a close-up stealth shot

Hi,
here is a pair of shots I made a few weeks ago at a concert in our local botanic garden:

(taken with my Vivitar S1 3.5/70-210 (2nd version) fairly wide open AFAIR, on superia 100)

They made me think of the long discussion about sniping or interacting with persons to photograph. I can't say which of both is stronger and I don't feel the need to do so. I think they are completely diferent from each other.

What is your oppinion?
