Photographing your Bokeh

[seakayaker]

Klaus, beautiful shots! Absolutely Love the Candle . . . . . Amazing!

. . . . . also the shot of the roses above with the snow was a treat!

Lots of great bokeh being posted the last few weeks and I have not provided much commentary.

I took a fall a few weeks back and although nothing was broken it has slowed me down considerably. I am just starting to get back to a normal range of motion and hopefully back into my normal daily routine.

I'm sure you'll be back to "normal operations" soon, Dan.
Stay safe,

I have been working selective focus and also subject motion. perhaps not scads of Bokeh but in my mind it seemed to fit. Joe

All the best and please recover soon!

Exact same sentiments from me, Dan. We've missed your stuff

Work on getting your trigger finger up and running first :lecture:

And one more, the best one actually, with that same lens shot by my Canadian relative Graig Hulton at a lovely dinner.

PS I'll keep quiet for a while now :deadhorse::deadhorse::deadhorse:

Michiel

Oh, oh... has he started collecting lenses too?!? Well done Craig :thumbup:

 

[Winkel]

Well, this one is has more motion blur than bokeh. Hopefully it falls within the definition of a bokehgraph

I hope to get many more images while skiing in the new year!

Cheers,
Jim

. . . . . thanks to Rafael, Klaus, Michiel, Keith, Leica, & Paul for your kind messages that you have passed along! They are appreciated and welcome. At 59 years old I am certainly not a old man, but I will testify that the recuperating powers enjoyed in my younger years have faded some as I have aged . . . . .

. . . . . as long as I'm breathing with functional capacity I'm not going to complain (much).

The lesson learned from this particular mishap was do not save/protect the camera, it can be replaced and cost less to fix, with less pain, then this 59 year old body.

. . . . . now back to bokeh . . . . .
