Well, I think the most common definition is the quality of the out of focus areas of a photo. In your example, I think some lenses would not render the background as pleasing. I\'d consider this good bokeh. The background here is not a real test of bokeh, since it is made up of fairly large, smooth areas. For me, the test of a lens\' bokeh is how it handles a fairly busy background.
BTW, I like your portrait! Next time, I suggest loading up a bigger image. 800 pixels wide on a landscape works well.
