Happy Bokeh Wednesday Everyone!!!

Here's my friend Cory Lum, taking a photo of me, taking a photo of him (you know how it is when 2 photogs meet).

He also took this. Guess who the handsome (cough* cough*) model is?

Macro Mondays - The Beauty of Bokeh

13/2

Another busy day unfortunately, took these next to my desk while taking a break from job applications.

Wanted to explore the little pendants that hang right next to my desk. I liked the blurred bokeh at the window though looking at the photo on my monitor, I wished I had pushed the exposure just a bit higher. I could do it in post but I also want to remind myself to try and get it right in camera.

Pine trees and majestic mountains make a nice backdrop for this hardworking Pack Mule.

Bokeh in Mahon.

Yesterday the 2nd we celebrated the 4th of July, we will be leaving on the 4th to go to Germany, thats why it was on the 2nd. These are just some of the images. I didnt have alot of time to take photos or anything.

Water splash thats blurred which equals bokeh!

Backlit leaf gets the focus (from my strawberry plants which are turning rust and red colors)

Bokeh is defined as “the effect of a soft out-of-focus background that you get when shooting a subject, using a fast lens, at the widest aperture, such as f/2.8 or wider.” Simply put, bokeh is the pleasing or aesthetic quality of out-of-focus blur in a photograph.

I put the bokeh blank in the slot. This Petzval Lens is really amazing!

I find this lens flares too easily. The weird colour you see on the left is caused by internal flare.

Time to fulfill my hummingbird addiction. I saw lots of little Anna's hummingbirds this weekend, but none of my shots were completely spectacular. This is from the archives, a male broad-billed hummingbird in the Hummingbird aviary, Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum.

Obviously, not the best of lighting with him back lit, but bokeh's rather nice, I think. ;-)

All the best for Christmas Eve and Happy Holidays!
