Bokeh in Winter 2013

You would not believe it, calender says it was winter, nature lets it feel like spring.

Shortly before I wanted to return home, this is what I have seen, a tree full of blossoms!
Good opportunity to test the bokeh of my LX7.

f=24mm, f/1.4, s/125 @ ISO80

This image is converted from RAW into TIFF, scaled and saved to JPG (100% quality); no processing other than scaling whatsoever.

All in all I am satisfied with the result. Lighting was somewhat tricky. For a first attempt, the bokeh looks OKish to me. 

Anecdotal would be a hypothetical photograph someone else could have taken: "Man with camera staring at tree". Today was a windy/gusty day, the little branch kept swaying in and out of focus and framing respectively.
