This is one of the better examples of bokeh in this challenge. And I have a feeling you would know how to teach someone to shoot like this. I hope some novices read your notes. (Including me!~)

Love the grey tones.....also love these wispy remnants of prior glory. Well interpreted. Strong, yet subtle work.

A relief from the harsh surroundings. Thank you.

The two figures are safely posed between the tree trunks, nice setting. A tighter frame might convey the challenge concept better for me. Perhaps if it were framed from the waist to the top of the head to bring them closer and make the tree just that, a frame. You both exude a lovely sense of pure affection. Very nice.

Obviously intent on portraying strong emotion. Would do well in a portrait challenge. Is this one of the voices that lives in my head?

This seems like the perfect opportunity to get a more tightly cropped shot that would bring home your bokeh interpretation more strongly for me. The lower right quarter of the frame, zoomed in might make a more interesting statement.
