Yes, and ... Or is that "Yeah, but ..."?

Here's one of the clearer examples I've recently run across. Upper right bokeh 
is smooth and creamy, middle right not 
quite as good, and upper and middle left show classic dark center and bright, 
sharp edges. I intentionally left the edgy 
stuff to show the effect.

In this case, it's all in the distances.

Just to stay on subject, without going to the trouble of changing it and 
confusing everyone. ;-)
