i n g % bokeh
While not creamy, the bokeh in the earlier posted bedspring image wasn't bad, this shot also taken with the Promaster AF Aspehrical f/3.5-5.6 28-80mm has what I would call a rather jarring background! In the spring shot, the randomly leaning and criss-crossing of dried vegetation, as well, as other rusty metal, didn't make a terribly distracting background. In this case, the rectangular patterns of fence posts, fence wire, a gate produced a very different kind of bokeh result. I post this as a warning for others trying to squeeze what might pass as close-ups of large objects shooting this lens wide open at 80mm--sometimes it might work nicely, sometimes not so well. It's the kind of "bokeh" that might make some viewers re-apply their denture adhesive after looking at it too long.
