Hi Hayward.

Great shot my friend, funny thing is I was studying the exact same thing earlier by shooting a tape measure. My results are no where near as interesting as your though, excellent shot from you as always.

Backgrounds can do so much for a picture. Your green bokeh with its varying shades and light values combined with the green of the stem make for a peaceful and restful image.
