More bokeh

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

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.
