I'm in two minds, I like the bokeh, but the whole point of shooting on the veranda was the palm trees, so maybe a smaller aperture would have been the go.

Ah, I see what you mean - I would not have know there were palm tree there. But I like the bokeh, it really focuses attention on the coloured straws. They have a great arrangement!

Thanks Chris - a fairly ordinary shot really, but it'll do for the scavenger hunt.

Ah, the humble photographer routine!!!
Maybe it's because it's so ordinary that I was drawn to it, because even though it is ordinary, your eye for composition shines through in this one.

I'm thinking a diffuse fill flash may have improved this a little, now that I look at it on my crappy work laptop's screen. Thanks for the compliments though - you're too kind :)
