Bokeh Beauty

Not ready to abandon my b&w album yet. Going to work on nature shots this month - surely they'll be easier to find. I am intrigued with black & white photography.

Was this shot with a macro lens to get that much boker?

[Milanie]

@johnston1364 Yes, it was, Rob. Only way I have learned to get that bokeh is with my nifty fifty - not a true macro but the poor man's equivalent :)

[Graham Thresher]

Super shot.

I like to experiment with black and white also..not sure if I like some things in b/w or not but this one works for sure! Love the bokeh!

[Dyan Stevens]

It's a bokeh bonanza!

[Rick]

Awesome bokeh. Cool shot.

Oh I love the bokeh Milanie...............I really enjoy black & White photos and have learned a lot during B&W February but I often forget to use b&w the rest of the year! This is awesome that you are dedicating each month to a different theme in b&w, there would be so much to discover. I hope when I retire I will have more time to dabble in b&w! Keep up the great work Milanie!

@radiogirl Thank you, Kathy - it's as adventurous as I've gotten in trying new things :) Having the time sure has helped.

Love it in B&W

Excellent!

[Tony]

The subject appears well suited to the B&W style.

[Issi Bannerman]

This is lovely. I like it in black and white.

I love flower & nature shots in b&w- the texture and detail it often brings out are so interesting, really looking forward to your images! Great one to start!

[Irene Marshall]

Lovely bokeh.

[Pat]

really nice perspective and choice of crop!
