Read and Respond: What is Bokeh


(4) Include three images that demonstrate bokeh exceptionally well.



1) Bokeh is the name for a specific photography effect in which you have a soft out of focus background. You achieve this by using a fast lens and a wide aperture. 
2) Photographers love bokeh because you can add softness to an otherwise poorly lit photo. The photos that use bokeh are pleasing to the eye, they have creamy and light backgrounds. 
3) - A fast lens is needed, at least f/2.8.
   - A wide lens.
   -A decreased the distance between the camera and your subject to create a more shallow depth-of-field.
   - Highlights present in your background. 
  - Shoot in manual mode in order to be able to set your own aperture and shutter speed.

  1. Typo in number 3. The website you used probably said to shoot in manual but aperture-priority works, too.
