Much of my exploration of photography for the last year has been driven by weekly challenges for groups to follow a theme. The weekly challenge for the flickr group Macro Mondays for this week was to show something that "It's so Bokeh, can you even tell what it is?"
I experimented with controlling bokeh by using transparent objects prior to this challenge and this image shows how I used the glass base of a goblet to meet the theme. I tried to bisect the glass by showing the refracted frame of the window through the axis of the glass, calling attention to its roundness and transparency.

The helicopter ordered in 1970 was built by Bell Aircraft and delivered to the U. S. Air Force in 1973. For most of the 1970s the aircraft was assigned to the 301st Aerospace Rescue and Recovery Squadron at Homestead Air Force Base, Florida. Around 1979, the aircraft was assigned to support the 308th Strategic Missile Wing by transporting equipment and personal to and from the eighteen Titan II missile silos in Arkansas. The aircraft was instrumental in the response to the disaster at the silo near Damascus, Arkansas in 1980. Following the deactivation of the 308th SMW in 1887 the aircraft went to Hill Air Force Base. The aircraft was retired in 1995. (Text adapted from a plaque at the site.)
