Re: [OM] Good bokah, bad bokah?

[Moose]

Even with a less than ideal background, the very smooth bokeh makes it 
rather unobtrusive.
I just took some shots of a very silmilar iris except the upper petals 
curve up to form a sort of tent over the center. If I got the light 
right, I hope to have some images of the interior. I've been playing 
with my new 135/4.5. First tests indicate a rather smooth bokeh.
Maybe you will become to bokeh what Gary Reese is to resolution and 
contrast.
