BOKEH ?

bokeh? ever wondered what's that? "bokeh", derived from a japanese word, simply means 'blur'. so, in this case, the whole picture is out of focus and hence we get these beautiful roundish shapes. it depends on individuals whether they like it or not, but it surely has a huge following Among photographers around the world. Just go to flickr and search for "bokeh" and you will get thousands of bokeh pictures. They even have a group created just for bokeh shots. So, if you ever get blurrish shots or out of focus shots, don't be quick to delete them cos you might just got a perfect and artistic "bokeh" shot. The picture here is created by using manual focus on a 50mm lens. Bokeh does not have to be of roundish shape, but the term can be applied to anything that is blur. Thanks for viewing!!
