The Waitress*

Not bokeh in the strictest sense of the word, no.
But, yes, «out-of-focus portions of the picture»
that «serve to enhance the subject»
as our host puts it...

I know you’ve seen this image before,
but it fits (my understanding of) the challenge-topic.

Thanks, again, elips! And, yes, I have now posted further down in this gallery an image more according to the idea of OOF-portions serving «to enhance the subject» as you stipulated. — db.

I am sorry you deleted because it was a wonderful portrait, however, this gives you the chance to post something else along the lines of these two which are more on topic and really good, too! ~Sharon

Thank you, Sharon, for commenting on all three of my entries. I’ve deleted the first picture, understanding your comment perfectly. OK? — db.

This one also uses the idea of blurriness to great effect even though the out-of-focus part is in the foreground. Again a wonderful story seems to be being told with this image. I like all three of your b&w shots! ~Sharon
