Hatch, very very nice indeed! I like how the subject and the background separates because of the thin dof, but is still one with the background! Excellent!

Can someone explain at what stage "out of focus" background becomes bokeh? Or is it all bokeh by definition? Cheers

Well, technically, a blurry background is bokeh, since bokeh means blur. However, there's a special interest in the "quality" of bokeh, meaning how details and points of light appear. A key aspect is the quality of a circular out-of-focus highlight -- if it is soft, diffuse and circular that gets referred to as "good bokeh". If it's hard, sharp, or shows the lines of a bladed aperture, then that gets thought of as "bad bokeh".

That's a tidbit offered to the discussion, there are other aspects that others might chime in on.

Haven't shared anything in this thread and figured it's about time I do... Two shots of bokeh from me, the second I don't feel is as great, but threw it in nonetheless. Enjoy!
