    Default Bokeh anyone?

    My old Olympus 90mm f2 macro has the most silky smooth bokeh and the other day I decided to play around with it both in macro mode and as a telephoto. Those who do not like the color green can skip this post. All shots are either at f2 or 2.8.





    These first two are moss spore things...pods? I think the second one is without the husk, and the first is what's under the husk. IRL these are just a few mm across.

    and of course, what post of mine would be complete without ferns?

    thanks peeps. each of those little spore pod things is just a few mm across and so even the slightest breeze was frustrating. I may take the 90 into the field again tomorrow. bokeh may ensue. again.

    Very nice macro shots WD. Those moss spore capsules are so sharp, and as you said , very nice bokeh.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!
