Hatching by RobGeraghty, on Flickr

The bokeh balls are actually insects on the surface of the pond!

Thanks for explaining this shot. Looks like it could fit in the abstract category also. Delightful photo. Nice.

Very intriguing way to picture it!
Inventive.
And the reeds in the foreground, sharp to fading, give the setting for our imaginations to work.
Also a nice way to add contrast and "pop" to what could be drab colors.
Angky.

Thank you! I agree - I was tempted to mark it as abstract when I was posting it.

Thanks! I'm really impressed with the bokeh from the DFA 150-450.

Now that a cool idea, Rob. I may have to steal one day.
