My Town Shoot Out - Bokeh Updated

I found additional images on my other computer - they are at the end of the post.
I love bokeh, and didn't know what they were called until pretty recently, so I scoured my backlog for them, as I've got an assignment due tomorrow...
Bokeh is the choice this week from T of Picture This. "In photography, bokeh is the blur, or the aesthetic quality of the blur, in out-of-focus areas of an image, or "the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light." Differences in lens aberrations and aperture shape cause some lens designs to blur the image in a way that is pleasing to the eye, while others produce blurring that is unpleasant or distracting— "good" or "bad" bokeh, respectively. Bokeh occurs for parts of the scene that lie outside the depth of field. Photographers sometimes deliberately use a shallow focus technique to create images with prominent out-of-focus regions."
I encourage you to go and see everyone's contributions here or here.
These are all from my archives on Picassa:

And I felt bad for not having anything better all ready to go, AND I've been wanting to play with bokeh for a while - I may get the chance, once this semester ends!!

Found some more while looking at images to turn in tomorrow!!
Pretty much all Bokeh shot intentially this way:

Good Weekend to all!
