My photographer buddies all know how much I love my 100mm macro lens. I mean, I really love it. The bokeh it is capable of producing is full of the most amazing patterns and texture. For the non-photographers, bokeh is the ‘blurry’ part of a photograph–in a photo where one part is in focus but everything behind or in front is out of focus. Macro lenses, telephoto lenses and high quality lenses with wide apertures generally produce the best bokeh.
Here is proof…

The last one is my favourite. What’s yours?
I am going to be making prints of some of my macro work available for sale in 2010. Drop me a line if you’re interested.
Oh, and before I forget AGAIN, katphoto has a facebook page! I’ve had it for ages, and have neglected to mention it on here. So if you’re on facebook, you can find the page here.
Love the bokeh and the colours… my fave is the 2nd from the bottom – adore the colours!
