Okay, I have only been using Flickr for over a year now, but since my surrogacy blog is up and running I figured I may as well update here too! I am now shooting with a Canon 40D and in my bag I carry a promaster 7500 speedlite, 50mm 1.4, 75-300mm, 17-50mm, and 60mm Macro.

BOKEH
Copied from Wikipedia:
In photography, bokeh is the blur,[1][2] or the aesthetic quality of the blur,[3][4][5] in out-of-focus areas of an image, or "the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light."[6] Differences in lens aberrations and aperture shape cause some lens designs to blur the image in a way that is pleasing to the eye, while others produce blurring that is unpleasant or distracting— "good" or "bad" bokeh, respectively.[1] Bokeh occurs for parts of the scene that lie outside the depth of field. Photographers sometimes deliberately use a shallow focus technique to create images with prominent out-of-focus regions.
Bokeh is often most visible around small background highlights, such as specular reflections and light sources, which is why it often associated with such areas.[1] However, bokeh is not limited to highlights, as blur occurs in all out-of-focus regions of the image.
