    oh man, these are all great. I've been wanting to work on how to shoot bokeh stuff so I wanted to see what yall could do.

    but I gotta say, I gotta give this week to Mike. The difference between subject and the background bokeh is epic, I really dig the refraction in the barrels(?)

    Mahalo Cody. Yes those are the barrels pointing at the ball of Christmas tree lights. Was surprised that it worked as well as it did in daylight. I was going to wait until dark but I liked the softer less harsh look during the day so ended up going with it instead. I always learn something from these exercises.

    PM sent.

    Color

    Anything with color as the main subject...pretty open but should leave lots of room for creativity
