Nice, Tina. Is the heat slowing your photography down a bit? It's kind of limiting me to shooting early morning (rare) or around sunset these days. Bring on October!

One of the paths I take leaving the office building where I work... I thought the light looked so nice so I took a more subtle bokeh shot.

Thank you! I actually have been able to play more lately than I have in a while, but the heat is going to squash that a bit. We ran around Tyler shooting Sunday, and it ended up being a short day. I did get an ice cream on the way home. Lol I think I need to plan early mornings the rest of the summer if I’m going to shoot outside. But, yesterday I set up in my dining room and did some still life. May be a good alternative to the heat.

That is a great display of bokeh posted by you. Having additional blossoms in the background really demonstrates how the lens renders OOF background.

...right here with hair bokeh?

...my first time studio light - and - human - portrait shooting test...
...photo workshop last week;
she was one of us students, tough and patient withstanding the five 400 W spotlights heat - without any make up......
...playing around with a ventilator - just having fun!

...eyes not in focus, but love it...

Puff ball with only a thin sliver in focus. Most of the image is bokeh, which sounds much better than "most of the image is out of focus". I'd say this image has an air of mystery, but it's probably just weird.
