There just for you.

Well, that certainly is green! The out of focus areas (I don't know Japanese, so I don't want to call it bokeh) look quite surreal, even in the monochrome version, is that your inner Dali coming out in post processing, or does this lens actually produce this look on its own?

Just for me? Wow!!! Thank you very much

I should be more careful what to ask.
Tormented, but still not defeated, not forgotten. Spring has brought rejuvenating green. I like it.

Not that I didn't appreciate the B&W, I liked it a lot, but I personally I like the green even better. Thank you again for the beautiful shot

Aye it's some sort of ornamental fir in my front garden, taken in early evening light.

Well I hope it's called bokeh... otherwise I'm in trouble.

That's the Loch (Ness) in the background, my "Special Lady” (SMC Pentax-A 50mm F1.2) produces that all on her own at F/1.2 and is supposed to be part of her appeal.

Most certainly, I'd have probably not posted this one... had you not asked.

I don't send money, no matter how much you plead, just in case you've got any ideas in that direction.

I think also the early evening light helped to bring out the colours, even though it's left a slight yellowish cast. Which I've not corrected as I think it does add to the image.

No thank you for all you kind words.

So where now are the Thistles?????????? I'm sure they'd be as sharp as this shot!

It's still too early in the year for them yet, another month or two and our fine national flower will be with us again.

You have given us the blue, the green, the gray. I'm waiting for sunshine.
