Festive Pics

My shoot canceled today so I went out to town for the first time with my 135, partly to get myself used to the focal length.

I like this pic mostly because of the bokeh lights in the back !

and went to some market stalls

Nice shots Mr Lin

Notably the family/merry-go-round one

I'm not sure about the second one though - the white around the leaves and berries makes it look on quick glace like a quick 'cut out montage'... how do you get such a huge difference between the clarity of the subject and the mass-blur of the background?

The berry in the second one is fake...only found out when i got home when zoomed in !

The clear separation is due to the Aperture at 2.0 on Full Frame.
