I didn't know what Bokeh was until I joined this forum! It was a term I'd never heard of. I just referred to it as "the blurry bits"

Here's a shot I took with my Pentax P3n and my Kiron 105mm f2.8 Macro lens about 6 years ago, from my back yard. It's a scanned image so a little quality was lost in the translation, but you get the idea...

Thanks Norm. I agree, as long as you're not in a hurry, it's a capable little camera, esp for a 10 yr old model! I would be looking for another if something should happen to mine.

By the way, some exceptional bokeh shots on display here recently!

Wow! looks like a still from a thrilling adventure film if one pretends that we're looking straight down.

The middle one has been banded. Four times!

Oh, and nice shots!
