You know . . . that's just crazy enough to work!
I'm still in the recovering bokehaholic phase myself.
That's one thing I love about photography -- how there's always another
component of it to be obsessed with.

Thanks for the advice! You're now officially an enabler. How do you
sleep at night?

Thank you, Rick.
I've wanted to learn the art of using bokeh well for a while now.
I'm going to try to not get carried away with it, but it does make
for a nice challenge in trying to incorporate it while composing the
shot, and a bit of a thrill when it works.

Everything works in this shot, Walt--composition, lighting, DOF,
bokeh. Lovely.

Hi all,
I grabbed this shot this evening while I was walking around
in the front yard this evening. All but about a dozen
or so blossoms are gone on this tree, and I just happened to
catch this one out of the corner of my eye from a pretty
good distance -- say, 25 feet give or take. And it
looked like a good bokeh opportunity.
Again, I had the K-50/1.4 on the K-x:

ISO 560, 1/500 sec, f/3.5, Manual
Any input appreciated. So do as you will.
Best,
Walt
