And for me, there's something about what the bokeh does to the blossom that is also enogmatic & pleasing
There is a pop-out-effect.

Now that I see the picture on the calibrated machine: it is a tad blueish and too dark...

I really liked the images from  a few days ago from Ian (B&W), Akira (sun) and Birna (bad 200mmf2)

Were you happy with the way your PP turned out Ian?
I've only seen this on a tablet screen,  but might have been happy to get this from FP4

Thank you, Colin. The technique needs to be refined but is definitely on the right lines.

Here in the outback, people do the weirdest things. Like building rocket launchers :) I've seen a few around. Not sure who are targetted by the missiles, though.  In general, we are on a friendly footing with our Swedish neighbours?

I like the image Kasper and I like the OOF lighting umbrella trying to act incognito

B/w infrared, sometimes, really adds detail and ambience.
