Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? Yes. However the centered composition and somewhat harsh light detract from this photo.

The short definition of Bokeh from KenRockwell.com, which I am using for voting on this challenge: "Bokeh describes the rendition of out-of-focus points of light." Not really seeing that here. Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? In my mind this doesn't fit the challenge. Nice photo, though seems to be a bit overexposed.

The short definition of Bokeh from KenRockwell.com, which I am using for voting on this challenge: "Bokeh describes the rendition of out-of-focus points of light." Present. Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? Yes. A very nice image, though on my monitor (recently calibrated) there is some artifacting on the left side where it goes to a darker gray. Also, the patterns in your points of light are somewhat distracting, but that's not your fault ;)

Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? In most respects. However, the brightest orange point of light is quite distracting.

The short definition of Bokeh from KenRockwell.com, which I am using for voting on this challenge: "Bokeh describes the rendition of out-of-focus points of light." Check. Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? Check. Very pretty. This looks almost surreal. I have to say however, that the pattern visible in many of your circles is distracting. That's not your fault of course ;)

Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? Definietly. Well done. This would have scored highly in classy holiday decorations too, I think!
