Daisies

Very mute bokeh. appealing image but it has some luminance problems to my eye; I'd want the subject daisy to pop out from the others, ideally.

Untitled Bokeh

Comment:
It's a fairly striking image, but it's like the bokeh are taking over the picture, for me. The two sides don't seem to be working together all that well.

Reaching For The Rain

Fascinating bokeh. Composition feels too cramped lower right to me. Give it a hair more breathing space on the right, especially, is my opinion.

Peek-A-Boo!

Comment:
Adorable puppy, cute pic, sense of bokeh int he far BG, but the birdbath (?) separates the bokeh from the subject and makes it less effectiuve as a relationship between the 2 layers, which is what I am looking for.

Dormant Dandilion
by crabappl3

Comment:
Not a lot of bokeh to this, just a cluster of them near the bottom. Strange, eerie colors. Effective frame. As an aside, I'd question whether this dandelion is really "dormant", but that's neither here nor there. Nicely composed and lit.

Here's the way I see it; "bokeh", technically, is an out-of-focus artefact created by spherical lens distortions. Artistically, it's a concept of interplay between out-of-focus and sharp-focus elements in a composition.

For me, your image does not meet the terms of the challenge especially well, because everything in it is realtively sharp, and there's no subject/ground interaction at all.

Nice desat job :-) Understated bokeh. Lighting a tad hot on the upper part of the controller. Fun image.

Circularly Confused

Comment:
Technical masterpiece. Unbelievably pure, circular artefacts. Only possible nit I have is I'd like to see just a hint of fill bringing out detail on the bulb threads. Dynamite Bokeh. Really effective use of simple border also.

Gorgeous, understated image. True Bokeh. Thumbs up!
