More bokeh

I really enjoyed the last contest. Had a tough time deciding on entries. Here are two I considered, but didn't enter.

1. Those are gorgeous! They would have made great entries.

2. I don't often enter, but bokeh is of particular interest to me

My two favorite lenses for bokeh are my Nikon 70-200/2.8 and my Nikon 135/2 DC which is often regarded as the best lens for bokeh ever made. The DC is for Defocus-Control which is a function unique to only this lens and it's little brother the 105. It's sole purpose is to provide the ultimate control over bokeh.

5. Very nice!

Especially the contrast with the good sharp detail on the little critters, er Katy and Doris

6. Excellent!

the concept of bokeh makes one really consider the background, regardless of subject! Love it!
