No it isn't. Her eyes saw it in 3D, not 2D, her eyes saw more dynamic range, and many more gradations of color tone.That's how your eyes viewed this scene.
Bokeh is a function of the lens construction and the Circle of Confusion the lens produces. The only control over bokeh a photographer has is lens choice.You achieved an amazing bokeh.
A blurred background results from depth-of-field (DOF) - a function of lens focal length, subject to image sensor distance, subject to background distance, and the lens aperture used.
DOF and bokeh are not interchangable terms.
There is a difference in the way a Mom see's an image and a fellow photographer see's the same image.
The Mom's perspective is mostly emotiona;l while the fellow photograpers perspective is mostly technical.
In general, the more technically accomplished the photographer, the higher they can price their work.
