A Load of Bokeh

What an interesting-looking plant! I love how the shape of the stalks is mirrored by the white in the background. And the colors are just divine - vibrant but muted without being oversaturated.

Cheers John.

Thanks guys!
Kim thinks it's a blue juniper. It's on the side of the garage.

Believe it or not there is actually a giant road map on the wall behind her.

What happened?! Looks like the window was completely blown in

 

[minicoop1985]

It was an abandoned car I found in a field. Every window was smashed. The glass even somewhat stayed together and wrapped around the shifter, almost looking like an impromptu glass sculpture. I'm thinking it was vandals, honestly.

Yeah that sounds likely... Well it made for a neat shot!

I'm pretty much brand new to photography, and these are my first pictures I've uploaded to this site. I'm really into bokeh and I want to get into macro when I get more money saved up for the right lenses. But here are a couple of my first ever bokeh pictures. I took them without knowing what bokeh was, haha, I just thought they looked cool. I have a few more but I'll wait and see if these first 3 go well and don't get laughed out of the forum haha. Pointers and constructive criticism is always welcome

I think some are getting shallow depth of field and bokeh confused.

Just to further confuse them, here's a shot with both.
