Mike: Bokeh is a word I hadn't heard either, until I started reading photoblog comments. It refers to the appearance of the out-of-focus sections of a photograph -- it's affected by the attributes of the lens, like aperture shape.

Colour, texture, DOF - all great. For a "simple" flower photo this one really has it all.

Simply lovely when a blossom 'sits' upon the bokeh, so delicately perched.

I agree this is an amazing shot of an anemone. Turfdigger, what does bokeh mean?
