In Manhattan *

In front of the Brooklyn Bridge

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.

Canon EOS 300D Digital Rebel ,Tamron AF 28-200mm f/3.8-5.6 XR
1/1000s f/5.6 at 200.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

I’m glad both of you, elips and Najinsky, like the image and consider it to be on-topic. And, no, Najinsky, I don’t really meant it as an excuse; it’s just that I had a doubt because my own «concept» of «bokeh» adheres a bit more strictly to what the Japanese word means (according to the links provided by Sharon); but, OTOH, I might have misunderstood something... ;-) — db.

Yes, just like this! This is a wonderful portrait and I have no doubt that she is a Manhattanite when I look at this. Good work! ~Sharon

Your comment almost sounds like a justification, it's not needed. This image absolutely fits the challenge. And very nice it is too! -Najinsky
