Dandelion seedhead - experimenting with bokeh

Bokeh has always facinated me, I just love images where the background is blurry but the object in the front is sharp and your eye is just drawn to it.
I love trying (mostly unsucessfully) to achieve this effect.
I thought today I would try to do this with a dandelion seed head and took a lot of pics with the seeds in the middle in focus and the fluffy outside blurred, but in the end decided to blip this shot with the fluffy seeds in focus, and the middle nicely blurred! a kind of reverse of the norm.
I quite like this effect... I hope you will agree :-)
