Delray Café

While staying in Fort Lauderdale last summer, my family decided to go somewhere that we haven’t really checked out before. We drove up to Delray Beach, a small but popular place to go to. It was actually pretty great with a couple parks with unique sculptures, a beautiful beach, and some very nice restaurants. While walking down the sidewalk, we were passing this café and noticed some very unique elements about it that I hadn’t seen passing by the other restaurants. I saw canopy of greenery with lights in it, an amazing graffiti wall and bright eye catching yellow flowers at the centre of every table. Within seconds of looking at the scene, I knew I could get a really beautiful shot by implementing bokeh into my shot. Due to my limitation of subjects I could choose from, I decided to use flowers in a glass vase in the foreground that at least stood out from the rest of the background. This shot was taken with my Lecia X1 at f2.8 and though the f-stop doesn’t seem very low, I was pretty happy with the bokeh that my Zeiss lens on the X1 was able to produce.
