Nancy, the
Bookfool, posted this photo of her cat on Facebook, saying, "Second annual Cat with Christmas Tree Bokeh shot." It isn't often I stumble upon a word new to me. After 79 years of reading and being read to, I've run across a lot of words, after all. So I looked it up.
In photography, bokeh (/ˈboʊkə/ BOH-kə or /ˈboʊkeɪ/ BOH-kay; Japanese: [boke]) is the aesthetic quality of the blur produced in the out-of-focus parts of an image produced by a lens. Bokeh has been defined as "the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light."
"
BOKEH" ... I like it ... and the great shot Nancy took of Fiona. Thanks for letting me use it, Nancy.

I did photography and hadn't ever heard of that word. I'll have to see if I can remember it.
