Another SA shot from last month. This was taken up in the Delaire vineyard aka 'Vineyards in the Sky' which is on the Helshoogte pass, enroute to Stellenbosch. My sister asked me to take some shots of these flowers...as usual I have no idea of the name.. Any expert on Western Cape flora?

Technically is this bad bokeh? With my somewhat deteriorating eyesight (old age) it doen't look too bad! fairly neutral to me.

hey barbiek,

lovely colors and the dof is perfect. the green background really lets the pink flowers stand out. however, i think that the pink flowers are a bit out of focus.

Barbara: Hey..Hi Nicole...I had just focussed on the middle flower, perhaps a little more DOF would have been better then.
