December 22nd - Bokeh Bandwagon Not



My original plan for today's post was to jump on the bandwagon and do a photo like Eric or Lance. But I didn't have much luck. I'm thinking I need a wider aperture lens, or more precise cuts than I can do with a utility knife and my limited amount of patience. So maybe some time in the near future I'll do better, but for now, it's just Shannon and me with a nice quiet evening at home, and a few somewhat out of focus Christmas lights in the background.
1/10th sec. f/7 iso 200

  1. Yes, I think f7 is way to small to gain the effect. They say (whoever they are) that 2.8 is about as small as you can get. But try 3.2 or 3.5?
    best if at f1.4-f2.0

  2. A lovely shot nonetheless. I did find the two videos interesting (but I just have a point and shoot camera - no fancy lenses).
