Challenge: Bokeh III (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Nikon D200
Lens: Nikon MF 105mm f/2.5 AIS
Location: Washington Park Arboretum
Date: Oct 21, 2006
Aperture: f2.8
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1/200
Date Uploaded: Oct 21, 2006

 No crop, no saturation. Pretty much straight out of camera. Slight unsharp mask to bring out the bark. Figured this photo really needs shallow depth, wouldn't work without it. Though I think having a bit more depth for the "green" leaves would have worked better. Probably one of my favorites in a while.

Taken around 8:30am PST. Overcast skies.

I agree with you, after a while the softness of the green leaves closest to the bark is a bit distracting. Great capture and great finish.

nice one, but I think its the subject because of which the bokeh is gradual not sudden...
