What is bokeh? Its one of the most popular forms of photography. By blurring the background of a picture, the subject becomes more appealing. There are multiple things that you need to take into consideration while trying to achieve bokeh. First, you need to make sure you have a nice lens with a large aperture and place it to the largest setting. ( The smaller the number the larger the aperture so f/1.4 would work.) This will create a narrow depth of field and therefore more bokeh. Next, you want to get close to your subject and focus on it to get a sharp image. Lastly, place the subject far away from from the background that you want blurry to achieve the best bokeh. |
