How can I create amazing bokeh for my photography? (Picture Included)?

I'm not sure that you will be able to create a bokeh like that with your camera. I was never able to create such a shallow depth of field using a bridge camera, but you should be able to create a fairly pleasing bokeh in your own photos. You will probably need to use your camera's macro mode. Zoom in on your subject--you really need a long focal length to create a shallow depth of field, so make sure that your lens is at its full extension. You'll need to get as close as possible to your subject, and you'll get a much better bokeh effect if your background is a good distance away from your subject--I'd say at least 5-10 feet.
