Roseh bokeh

Went out snapping roses. I took this pair many times, many ways. Took me a while to realise I was getting impacted by the low sun: all was fine except I was closer than minimum focus distance, so I'd edge back - and the photos were soft and not so good.

... fiiiinally realised that as I edged back I was moving out of the shade. So I crouched a little to compensate, and this was much better.

I also took it wide-open for the round bokeh, but the details are just not quite as sharp and nice - so I'm going with this one.
