@simon_diamond That sure is a separated background, but where's the bokeh?

@greatjoe Most of the frame is bokeh.

@simon_diamond Bokeh is when bright points of light form a distinct, usually circular border against the surrounding darkness. Now where is it?

@greatjoe You're thinking of "bokeh balls" that's something else.

@simon_diamond No, I'm thinking of bokeh. You're thinking of background separation.

@greatjoe No.

@simon_diamond It comes from a Japanese photographer who saw the clear lines made by bokeh as an interruption to their dreamlike backgrounds. "Bokeh" is an insult, you can literally call someone a "bokeh". You're effectively calling a stew "chunk".

@greatjoe I'm not gonna respond to trolling. You can google the definition. Bye.
