I thought this challenge was Bokeh not shallow depth of field, What a joke. I guess if the challenge says take a picture of the number three I will be ok with the letter F.

Hmmm interesting opinion. The top 3 images all show excellent use of bokeh to enhance the subject and overall superb photography. What exactally is your issue?

Top 10 for that matter.

Sometimes you can just smell them.

What then would be the perfect (non-Rockwell) definition of Bokeh?

And I just gotta say that despite your ribbon-winning ways, you're an OK guy. :-)

Yup, it's only a matter of time, now she has a decent tripod and the 10-22mm :-) I know she'll thank me for it someday...

You guys are sweet (though you're a bit of an expensive influence, Robt!)

Don't hold your breath on the ribbon thing, though. Heck, I entered my most bestest DPC-friendly shot ever in this "bokeh what a joke" challenge and didn't even crack the top 20. Had good bokeh, though.

Geee....I am so dumb!! Here I was thinking I did okay. I mean...look at my stats. I got 5th in the last Bokeh challenge...and I really tried hard to beat that this time. And I did...I got 4th!

Now I find out that my entry was nothing but a joke. How stupid of me. Hey....can you please teach me where I went wrong...as I really want to improve my stat next time around!!!
