My thanks to all of you who voted and particularly to those who commented. The comments lead me to study the concept and execution of bokeh more. I agree that this image does not show the concept well. - JL

Nice image, colors, lighting and composition, but I think too much of the background is in focus to be considered bokeh.

Slightly shallow DOF but I don't really see anything I'd considered bokeh here.

Good subject, and nice, colorful background. I might have preferred a bit shallower DOF for this challenge.

Nice portrait. Not getting a feel of bokeh, though.

Nice but the flash makers her a little harsh in the skin tones.

Background could use a bit more bokeh to it, especially the flowers on the left.
Good focus on goth girl.

I like the idea, but I feel like the gravel/pavement takes away from the drama of juxtaposing this girl dressed in black with such bright colors.

The flash made the lighting a little hash on her face. I found the red flowers in the background a bit over saturated. Great model tho. For American Goth, I think if you have the American flag in the background somehow, that would be terrific.

The "Bokeh" isn't strong here...

The girl is too pretty to be goth :) But lovely bokeh on flowers. Hope this does well for you.7.
