ISO 100, 50mm, f/1,8, 2.0sec
The bokeh is the blur, or the aesthetic quality of the blur in out of focus areas of an image.
This time I will show you how to transform the out of focus lights into a shape.
What you will need:
- pen or a pair of compasses
- sheet of black cardboard
- scissors
- cutter or sharp knife
- lens with a large aperture (f /1.2, f/1.4, f/1.8) or a zoom lens
I will use a Canon 50 mm, f/ 1.8.
Now you need to cut the cardboard to the lens diameter.
Yow can use the lens for marking or just a pair of compasses.
You cut a shape into the middle of the circle.
Place the cardboard circle into the lens.
Take your camera and have fun.
Take the shot in the largest aperture (im my case f/1.8).
ISO 100, 50mm, f/1.8, 1/5sec
Out of focus lights will take the the shape of your cardboard pattern (decoupage).
As you defocus the lights in the image the shapes grow bigger.
ISO 100, 50mm, f/1,8, 2.0sec
ISO 400, 50mm, f/1.8, 1/4 sec
You can make many forms from harts, stars, smiley faces... Use your imagination and create art from anything.
I want to show you just how you can focus on a closer object or person and in out of focus yow will have the bokeh shape effect.
Whit the zoom lens is the same thing: yow take the shot whit large aperture and focus somewhere close to the lens and the lights will be out of focus. They will appear in the shape of your pattern.
Yow can use this effect to make a movie too:
That`s it. Hope you'll have fun.
Drop me questions if you have any.
really cool
