I put them all back up, but in their own gallery - Bokeh. http://www.pbase.com/tinamanley/bokeh These are not manipulated in any way except levels - and one was converted to B&W and one cropped. They were converted from RAW to tiffs in LR and from large tiff Prophoto RGB to small jpeg sRGB in PSC3. I don't know what lens (lenses?) I used. I have about a hundred more photos taken from the same place but I haven't gotten to them yet. They may be better or worse. If anybody has a clue why the bokeh is so awful, I'd love to know, but nothing is faked - no artificial "bokeh" programs were used. If I had used artificial bokeh, you can be sure it would not be this awful! Tina Tina Manley www.tinamanley.com
