I don't really consider bokeh in my photos. I don't think I've ever used
any of my lenses wide open, as I'm always looking for maximum sharpness
throughout the image.

I've only heard about what bokeh even is in the last year or so. I've
not seen a single word written about it until last year. Not once in any
photo magazine, not at school, nowhere!
