My goose headshot photo above has great bokeh. The blue is the water but the brown is actually wood from the empty boat slip. So the other with the tree, may just be the way I focused, temps had dropped by then and I was shaking from cold and about to head home when I saw them. Plus pp will fix anything not blurred enough.

Sell the 300mm? Probably at some point down the line. I'll hang on to it for awhile and see. One beauiful sunny day out with the 100-400mm isn't enough for me to make that decision just yet. Never know ...maybe I'll get my daughter hooked on photography
