Friday My Town Shoot Out ; BOKEH



Saw these cute things in a taxi.


A lion statue guarding a memorial to a Chinese war hero.


Plenty of constructions going on by the roadside.






Tiny wild flowers.


Playing with the son's earpiece for that bokeh effect, which was lying around on the coffee table.

Keep Singapore clean please!


Tiny red insect in a wetland area, that's my son's hand holding the branch so mummy could get a clearer shot.

The little surprise in the local zoo, the free rein tree lizards.

I love Bokeh, thanks for sharing your wonderful shots! I especially like the softdrinks-on-top-of-a-garbage-bin shot! If I'm not mistaken, Singapore is the cleanest place in Asia. Here in the Philippines, we got a long way to go. Haha!

You very clever Jama, I looked all over my archives, and didn't find one bokeh photo. The funny thing is I had one holding a seed like the way you son was holding his seed. My seed became very blur instead of the background.

So this Friday, my chikgu says, You fail!!!!

It is hared to choose with your photos, it always is! but if I have to make a chose of fav (and I do) I like the hard hat with the men blurred or (surprise) the flower. No the seed in your son's hand.... Okay that is my final choice - the seed.

Some stunning examples of bokeh, Jama!

I think my favourite was the helmet with the workers in the background. But it was sure hard to choose.

Ooo I like your collection of shots! Its hard to choose a favorite out of all these. I like the first one really well and the tiny red bug! But I think my favorite would have to be the the trash can with the cans and cup coming out! =)

Wonderful Bokeh's, all!

Chef E said...

Great shots! I also love bokeh, it is a fun way of displaying some shots for art!

I have many in my archives, but did not have time to look, so we may have to revisit this again!

Wow, a colorful post and some very cool shots. The bug...yuck...although the shot is nice. I love the way the little motorcycles reflect off the window too.
