Exercising "BOKEH"

"Suffice to say that different lens designs have an effect on the appearance of the out-of-focus areas in photographs.
Some photographic styles commonly use selective focus to bring the viewer's attention to the subject. That means the subject is focused but the non-subject areas are not. If those unfocused areas are busy and distracting, the objective of bringing attention to the subject is lost. That's why portrait photographers in particular care about bokeh.
There are a couple of myths about bokeh:
Bokeh is controlled by the roundness of the lens diaphragm.
Faster lenses have better bokeh."

This is my another work on bokeh potrait with a shallow DOF.
