For fun, I attempted creating my own shaped bokeh by affixing black construction paper over the edge of my lens. Below are some of the results.

I know this is a bit early, but that is what the schedule allows.

Bokeh is the pleasing quality of out-of-focus blur in a photograph. It is derived from a Japenese word meaning "blurred" or "hazy".

"Understanding Bokeh: The art and science behind the beauty of blur" is an article that goes into more detail, but there are many.

I find it interesting how different environments and different lenses create bokeh. Looking foward to seeing everyone's interpretations!

Here's one that comes to mind right off. He's 55 now! I had a Rollei at that time, and have always regretted trading it for a 35mm Minolta. I had been using a 35 mm gizmo with my Rollei for colour slides, but it had a too-narrow field of view, but not narrow enough to be useful.


Nice bokeh, but that smile and those eyes make the picture - his personality shines through!

Nice one!


TY photophile

I can't say that until recently I was ever consciously aware of bokeh or worked to manipulate it, but I do notice that it comes sort of naturally if I try any kind of close-up. I tend to do landscapes more than anything and most commonly work for depth of field. Now it might affect my camera positioning or choice of aperture.
