Sundry talk

I rent 'fast glass' at times, meaning that the lens has an aperture (usually fixed) of 2.8 or less. This type of lens has a fairly narrow depth of field and the better quality lenses produce a very pleasing out of focus blur (often called bokeh).
When I used the 105 mm, f/2.8 for this shot I did not expect so many of the tulips to be in focus.  Apparently I was at the proper angle that put many of them into the focus plane resulting in an in-focus flower shot. Always the shots can teach me something, if I am willing to look.
