You're welcome and thank you. :-)
Since the light is always changing, I don't think I could foresee in my own mind, how the bokeh would look. If I have the time, it's shoot and then look at the results...and then go from there. :-)
I saw in your above post that you do workshops, I'd be interested in hearing about them and where you do them. Please and thank you. :-)
Thanks for responding. The bokeh thing takes time. I have taken my favorite lenses for creating bokeh (my 50mm 1.4, my 70-200m 2.8, 300mm f and my 200-400mm f4 and just run test shots on them with various types of backgrounds and different f-stops to see the results. Use the same spot for the entire series of a lens. Then I can look at them in the computer and see how they come out. It is all about f-stop and the distance the subject is from the background. Then I make notes, stick the notes in my camera bag and review them before I go out on a shoot. Then it just takes practice.
I'm located in northwestern Broward County and do most of my workshops in the winter months when the snowbirds are around. I travel in late May, June and July (my time to take the photos I love). However, I will do workshops on demand at most any time. I usually keep the number small--1-10 people and go to area parks to shoot.---Got a friend or two and we could easily work out something. Just let me know.
