I haven't quite got a handle on how to set the manual controls on the camera yet ~ this is my first attempt at bokeh. I'll keep working on it, it is a good challenge for acquiring skills.
Good point of view and in manaul mode set the aperture to the smallest number, depending on your lens. A Fast 1.4 lens would give you the best bokeh, so smooth and silky!
Very good one for arranged, it looked almost real from the thumbnail. Nicely composed. "V" As Terry mentioned a wider aperture will give you a shallower depth of field. Also try to photograph in "manual" mode, this gives you more control.
