This is the bokeh thread, right? So, here's a picture of bokeh unsullied by some annoying foreground in-focus thing

That's a great example of the old saying:

"If it's not bokeh, then defocus it!"

In case anyone who did not find the bug wantsto know where it is, here's an excessively deep crop, IQ falling apart, but you can see the bug on the sporangium. This crop is from slightly to the right and above dead center.

And another bug mostly obscured by the in-focus sporangium to the top left.

You've captured your subject beautifully.

Couple pictures from Berlin. I think the bokeh of the DFA 24-70mm is ok for casual portraits.

The abelia is in full bloom, and the moths and bees are taking full advantage. SMC Takumar 105 f2.8 on a 36mm extension tube.
