#179 - Super Frosty the Snowman - Bokehistan Style

I know, a boring snowman - center cropped none the less but check out the crazy bokeh! For some reason lately I have become somewhat obsessed with bokeh - thanks to Dustin Diaz - www.flickr.com/photos/polvero/ and a new friend recommended to me by the a fore mentioned Mr. Diaz, Roger Lim - www.flickr.com/photos/rogvon. Both of these gentlemen have mastered the art of capturing bokeh and I aspire to one day come close to their level. You can't beat this time of year for finding some bokeh with all the Christmas lights up for the taking. If you are wondering why I keep using the word "Bokehistan", I got it form these two gentlemen. I'm not sure if it has a hidden meaning but I like the way it sounds and it has kinda stuck. Hopefully if I am using it incorrectly, one of them will enlighten me as to where it came from.
