A fine set. Especially like the blue one. Looks like a good lens

Nice set but I think the bokeh is going to drive some people crazy on here.

Thanks all. I am excited. another $15 wonder. Have another too to check out soon...

I thought it instructive to see those two quotes together!

I think there are times and moods that are good for the chaotic bokeh. Didn't know how this one would turn out... But after checking the preview I knew... and I went for this one... I like how well it works with that blue... Have another something in mind for it...too.

Question: Is there something different in how a lens handles "front bokeh" rather than the usual "back bokeh?"

That creamy white in #4 is another flower much closer and so OOF.... Just wondering... Will try some front bokeh with different lenses...

My weekend starts and they talk of sunshine...
