A Trashcan for Bokeh?

I really liked the color and texture of these crabapple leaves, but I couldn't find a suitable background, so I kept moving around until the neighbors trashcan was behind it. By using an aperture of f:5.6, it threw the background out of focus just enough that you couldn't tell what it was. Another case of good old Yankee ingenuity!

Great color contrast. Those leaves stand out and the subject is sharp.
