Aperture was about 5.6. I wanted to stop down just enuf to show the aperture formation, but not so much as to make it impossible to hand hold the lens. EI was 800, shutter speed 1/4 second. I focused a little - totally OOF gave just round blobs, so the focus was adjusted to provide the aperture shape. Exposure and Shadows were adjusted in the RAW converter, as was Contrast, and Hue/Sat was tweaked a bit in Photoshop.
