Bokeh and Water

Bokeh is easily achieved by holding the camera at angles to the
light that catch reflections from glass and water.
The Botanic Gardens in Glasnevin are a good place to practice.

So ... by using hoods on all of my lenses I'm actively working against Bokeh?

I don't know enough to be able to answer this definitely. I don't use a hood and tend to follow sunbeams as they fall onto flowers. Wherever there are waterdroplets in the background, there's bound to be good bokeh, if you angle the camera well.
