I've been trying to figure out how to do bokeh for a while - I knew what to look for in a background and how to set up the camera, but it wasn't until yesterday that the whole focal range finally clicked. I'm so happy!

And a study in contrast: Light/Dark. Soft/Hard. Life/Death/Rebirth.

Thanks! When I shot it, i just thought it was neat that the dried flower had caught the other one. But as I looked at it on the computer, I started seeing all the contrasts.
