Very nice. I wanted to enter the shot I put toward the end of the Colorful thread but figure it best not to dupe photos :) This will be another fun shoot. Love bokeh.
 
What a great idea Doug. A seasoned photographer's choice for sure. Hm, this'll be interesting.
 
Some sweet pics of a really fun subject!

Just a heads up. When Jesse original birthed this contest, the format was to spend the week obtaining your photo. The contest thread gets posted Friday night for pics to be posted over the weekend. I think the logic is if we're randomly posting pics throughout the week, youll give away your creative ideas to be stolen :) ;)

I thought about this earlier. Makes me wonder if we shouldn't start calling these " '(Topic)' Photo Contest Thread" to distinguish them from more normal photo-sharing threads.
 
The chestnut tree in my backyard provides shade in the summer, and then declares war on bare feet in the fall thanks to these spiky shells.

 
Had fun with this one. Never actually shot with that as the goal. Heading out of town so I'm posting mine up now.

Cheers.





 
Double post - what is up with the server today :uhoh3:.

Thanks Jay. No, no tree yet. I did get the xmas lights out though for this. Here was my setup. Shot at f2.8. Deliberately underexposed. Dropped exposure, shadows and blacks more during post.

 
Haha! Love the effort! Your original photo seems to be gone. At least I cant see it.




Im not happy with my previous submission as I don't think it really fits the subject matter. It has a nice background but calling it good Bokeh is a stretch.

I ran out back and snapped this for better Bokeh...
