This is simply amazing.
That's the first time I've encountered the term "bokeh", as far as I remember.
I found you on "Battle-of-the-bokeh" group.
To be sincere, I have no clue how to use all of the camera settings as efficiently as you guys do. What do you think? Which is more important here - hardware or skills?

Hmm a bit of both I'd say, I barely use anything other than Auto or M(anual) mode. At the end of the day it's all about trial and error, make mistakes and learn from them, that's how I do it

Awesome, I had no idea of bubble wrap could be so useful in photography!
I wish I could do this, but my camera doesn't accept flashes in macro mode, I wonder why.
