Re: Bokeh Photography ONLY : )

Yes, share how you did it, especially the first one :naraz:

Re: Bokeh Photography ONLY : )

So does it mean focusing on a near object and blurring the objects at the back?

Re: Bokeh Photography ONLY : )

Does this qualify? My 6 year old took this of her toy car.

Re: Bokeh Photography ONLY : )

Okay I tried it in all different settings of my camera but it just doesn't work. If I have two people standing next to each other and I want to blur one of them out, how do I do that? This is so confusing. The aperture doesn't go lower than 3.5. Do I need to get a 50 mm f/1.8D Lens?

Yes lower the f-stop , easier it is to blur the background.
What you can do is:

Put more distance between subject and background!

Re: Bokeh Photography ONLY : )

Doesn't work.

Samad: Love the first picture.

Question:
So the blurred part on the right that is shinning, are those mirrors/lights?

Prince those are some great shots =)

Re: Bokeh Photography ONLY : )

nice pix everyone. :cheegum:

Bokeh describes the appearance, or “feel,” of out-of-focus areas. Bokeh is not how far something is out-of-focus,** bokeh is the character of whatever blur is there**.

Please read Bokeh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia for more info.

Fantastic shot, but it is not a b’okeh.
