The Snow ball is hanging from a fishing line kinda the same set up as my Juggler shot.
I hope understand the term Bokeh this is a macro of the snowball made interesting by the blurred background subject.

I like the shot :)

Very nicely done. I can't imagine how long it took to get this shot. The white balance looks off though; it looks a bit red. Maybe you intended that. Anyway, cool shot.

Your shot is somewhat similar to mine. Hope you are doing better than I am!!

The snowballs splatted in the backround against the fence really add to it! :)

This doesn't do "bokeh" for me at all.

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." We see that to a degree, but more this is just a shallow DOF setup. Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? Somewhat. Creative idea, nicely shot, though the lighting is flat.

lol - very funny shot! i wonder how you set this up - did you just drop snowballs until you caught a good picture? maybe not quite fitting to my understanding of 'bokeh', but a good shot nonetheless
