Beautiful bokeh

Images where it's all about, or nearly all about, the bokeh are not always successful photographs, because they can look contrived and a little devoid of interest. But this photo actually manages to achieve this very well.

This is a simply superb capture in all respects - the bokeh is certainly beautiful, but it's part of a wider effect. The bokeh here is actually drawing the eye to the subject, rather than simply creating a pretty backdrop. Very impressive in every respect.

The colour palette here is beautiful, and the bokeh is part of the overall effect. It blends in almost effortlessly with the other elements in the image - something that's far from easy to achieve.
