Lens-Artists Photo Challenge: Bokeh
A Crimson Rosella in the garden this morning. The blues and greens work well with the subject don’t you think?

Using the subject as well as bokeh

Not quite right, A bit too much blur

Bokeh even works well in black & white

or in colour for contrast

Just being arty-farty with bokeh. Using the blur effect with water drops. First in black and white…..

……then in colour

The first two are my favorites. The effect works really well in them.

That crimson rosella image is beautiful! A great example of effective bokeh. It picks up the blues and greens in the bird’s plumage. Wonderful! I also love your spider webs. π
