 Just a rose bouquet. Pulled one forward a bit to increase the bokeh...maybe pulled too far foward? Taken with a 50mm f/1.8

The short definition of Bokeh from KenRockwell.com, which I am using for voting on this challenge: "Bokeh describes the rendition of out-of-focus points of light." We have that here. Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? Yes. However the centered composition and somewhat harsh light detract from this photo.

great subject, but this is one of those images that i would really prefer an off-center composition
