Since I had some positive responses, I'm posting another set of bokeh explorations. Captions are the lenses used--this seems to be a tradition among bokeh shooters, who are always on the lookout for lenses with interesting rendering characteristics.

Ah--correction: that's an old Tamron, not Tokina, zoom

Some are pleasing, others are very distracting. All are interesting.

Wow! More beauties! I really like them all. Sometimes the light or spots of light in the bokeh is a part of the overall design/composition of the image. I don't find any of them distracting, but that's what pleases me, and all of these are pleasing!
