Day 20 - Bokeh

Bokeh may need a little explanation. The Wikipedia definition is below.

In photography, bokeh ( boh-kə,[1] Japanese: [boke]) 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." Bokeh occurs for parts of the scene that lie outside the depth of field.

Actually, this was the first time I have heard of Bokeh. I have always referred to it as out-of- focus depth of field.

Day 20 - Bokeh

I will be honest and not take credit for this picture. My niece, Bianca, took this at Christmas two years ago. I loved the out of focus lights and background images. This has always been one of my favorites in my photo library.
