Bokeh Fun at Oceanside Pier by taffy

Bokeh Fun at Oceanside Pier

For my mentor group's focus on bokeh over the next several weeks, I thought I'd post this happy accident, taking during a wonderful meetup Junko @jyokota and I had with Elizabeth @redy4et and Joe @thirdjoe at Oceanside Pier. I'm going to have great fun working on this photos when I get home (tomorrow).
Thank you for your amazing response to yesterday's sunset. I've read all your comments, smiled at the favs, and look forward to viewing and commenting as soon as I can. I really appreciate it!!
Very cool effect

Not really a 'real' attempt at planning a bokeh shot, but I couldn't resist it -- it was one of several where I had the focus off, but I sort of liked how this one turned out! Just can't take any credit for it...

Another bokehlicious shot, just lovely, and a fave.

@taffy a beautiful bokeh shot Taffy! I need to find somewhere with street lights or decorations to try this kind of bokeh!

How do you mean you can't take credit for this! You held the camera, fiddled with the settings, focused then processed it! Its lovely bokeh!

Pretty twinkling lights!

I am loving all the bokeh shots - intentional or otherwise! Like Pam, I must get out to find some lights! @pamknowler

Mmm. I like this; very artistic!

Taffy, it was my pleasure to meet you and Junko! I had such a great time talking with both of you and learning from you. I wish we had more time to talk and take pictures. Guess I will have to make my way to Chicago someday. Fav!

Fabulous, I tried to do this last night and it did not turn out near as nice as this. FAV!

Fabulous image

Fab shot.

This is such a lovely 'accident'. I like how the lights make the round bokeh, and the shapes are still identifiable.

The colors and bokeh are beautiful!

Serendipity! And works like a charm.
