thanks mnhtnbb!

We started a poll at the end of February: https://www.democraticunderground.com/103674169

with 15 votes in, it looks like the subject will be "bokeh, 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"

Some may not be familiar with this effect, so I include here a couple of examples
