Weekly challenge 10/23 - 10/29 Fall shallow dof EXTENDED through 11/5!

[SquarePeg]

For this week’s challenge, using Fall as an overall theme, post photos using shallow depth of field. It doesn’t have to be f/1.4 only with a barely discernible subject - be creative. Use the shallow dof to separate your subject, or to create a beautiful bokeh background, or to isolate one item in a grouping, or to create a unique perspective on a common subject… don’t forget to keep a fall theme.

As always, new photos only for the weekly challenge please. Get out there and shoot!

Slow to pop here too except in the mountains. We can always extend this one for two weeks if it’s not ideal timing for some areas.
