In search of bokeh

Trying yet again to capture the wonderful bokeh. I could see it might work with the sun behind the leaves of several bushes not far away but I yet have to perfect the shot.
This is one of our seven kowhai’s in focus.
Thankful for:
Back to being Number One in My life!

Yes you got the bokeh....very refreshing to see all that greenery & flashes of light.
You must be feeling on top form again then, so glad You came through it OK.

[Joy's Focus]

I think you found it!

[Clare Gadsby]

glad you're feeling restored. you certainly found some bokeh here - beautiful! and the foreground in-focus leaves are such gorgeous colours and shapes

[Maggiemae]

@santina Not as clear as I would have liked, Santina! Have to read the manual again!

[Maggiemae]

@happypat Almost on top form Pat - feel very tired at times but well being good!

[sarah]

Super nice especially on black

[Maggiemae]

@louannwarren Just recently, Lou Ann, i have felt second class - not right with it!

[Lou Ann]

@maggiemae I think the Covid limitations are making all of us feel bad, about ourselves and our lives. Everything is so topsy turvy it is hard to always stay upbeat.

[Maggiemae]

@louannwarren We are pretty lucky here though - you would never know there was covid before. All the cases are coming in from overseas and are being contained!

I like the branches framing this and you have caught the sunlight nicely

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Nice lighting- with all the green it looks summery to me- but I know it's not summer there!

[Maggiemae]

@olivetreeann It really is nice and green for winter, Ann!

[KWind]

Dreamy light and dof.

[katy]

[Maggiemae]

@grammyn Well almost top notch, Katy but I can't complain about anything. Wish there was a doll we could all lay complaints with!

[katy]

@maggiemae LOL Me too!

[tony gig]

Lovely focus and capture.

The leaves are beautiful in the sunlight ... wonderful focus

[ChristineL]

This is lovely, the colours, shapes, bokeh, you've got it all!

[Maggiemae]

@inthecloud5 Thanks Christine for your enthusiasm! But I want the bokeh a lot clearer and in the background. Always challenges here on 365~!
