Taken at the historic Kameruka estate cricket ground where Australia and England played a game in 1896. My team were playing against Kameruka on the weekend and as usual I had my camera at the game.
I thought that most of the photos in the last bokeh challenge were pretty, but not great photos. The bokeh needs to play a part in the story of the photo not just be a pretty pattern in the background - and here I feel the bokeh is just as important as the in focus subject.
Shot JPG editing in CS1- levels layer, curves layer, selective colour layer - USM, resize and save for web.

Maybe not bokeh in the traditional sense but your blurred background surely finishes off the "story" of the shot. A little grainy maybe and the line in the back has a funky tilt which makes the shot feel a bit tilted but a nice candid shot in general.
