Greetings from the Critique Club.
Self portraits are never easy. This is an effective self portrait with interesting lighting and an unusual pose.
The Challenge was to illustrate the effect of Bokeh and your shot does not do that.
Getting good Bokeh effect is as much about the lens and camera as well as good Depth of field. (shallow) the out of focus background needs also to be presented by a pattern that blurs well into interesting abstracts for example water drops glistening in sunlight.
The wood pattern on your bed board might look OK in stronger light with a deeper depth of field.

| Too much of this is in focus for it to be considered bokeh. Also you color balance is off, you have a red/yellow color cast over your entire image. |

| Interesting lighting, but this isn't really bokeh. |

The challenge was to take a photo whose subject is enhanced by the bokeh of the background, but here you did it backwards, the cabinet in the background is quite clear, while the bum in the foreground is somewhat blurry.
Blurry Bokah Bum. Say that fast 3 times! hehe |

| Interesting. I think the crop needs to be made either horizontal or angled as it cuts the subject harshly....the bokeh needs to be stronger...but I still give you points for courage. I know what it is like to have your body being judged as well as your photo...and it does make the week go longer and the voting more personal. So I aplaud you in your endeavour. 7. |

| Not a good example of Bokeh IMO. Otherwise, lighting is interesting. |

The proper pronounciation is "Bo..Kay".... not Butt...crack...:O)
Seriously though, I do not see any "Bokeh" in this image. This factor, coupled with the lighting, composition and cropping, may result in a lower than average score. |

| I think this might not meet the challenge. Also it looks like you are mooning DPC. |

| Seems that there's no bokeh to speak of here... |
