Agreed with Jonathan, that 2 is wild. Yes the background maybe should be be a little blurrier to fit a more rigid interpretation of bokeh, but it's far from not meeting the criteria and it's a stunning shot. I was one of your 8's, this was one of my favourites. I would love to hear the 2 voters thoughts! I guess you just have to take things with a grain of salt on dpc sometimes.
