I love this.

I'm a prime shooter and I tend to shoot wide open almost at all times. But for me "good bokeh" was never about smoothly blurring the background. I like it when then background is blurred just enough so that you can see that there's something happening around there, but only after your eye has been drawn to the initial subject at first. It's all about framing. And I think this is a perfect example of good use of bokeh.

Great job.

Thanks! I totally agree, i dont see the point bluring out the background every time as well, i like adding context and sense of places to my photos

Superb composition!

Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.
