Hey Everyone Recently I have been wanting to push myself into learning more about this profession and get into the technical things with images. I have absolutely fallen in love with Bokeh, Not sure why I have but there is just something that really catches my eye about the lovely blur that is found into the background of images.
While looking at others work and trying to figure if it was mainly In camera blur or additional added from Photoshop, I thought to myself Leesa why not Test it out in camera. That is the best way to learn and focus on bringing your ability Up In the world.
So what I did was grabbed my camera and the 50 mm lens as well as one of my vintage cameras and headed for my front yard and started shooting with different F STOPS and adjusting my WB and the images and Blur were Beautiful.
I then came back inside and changed my lens to my Kit Lens The 18-55 mm and then went back out and played around. I changed my distance my angle and the difference was so Clear on which lens is much better with Bokeh, The 50 mm Because of the fact you can get the f Stop low enough where you achieve a small amount of focus and a Beautiful Bokeh.
This Project was so fun to practice and turns out I LOVE the images coming from this and I want to achieve more lovely images so I will definitely be Giving myself projects as soon as I can so that I am able to work with more of my camera and less in the editing process.
I must say If you photograph for a living, Take a break from the desk and head outside and capture some random object, animal and person and really push yourself and you never know you may LOVE what you accomplish. I want to say thank you to those who really have Shown me that perseverance and Hard work are Well worth the Smiles you capture. Thank you to Stephanie Stafford, An Amazing Fine Art Photographer for helping and showing that time will help you achieve great things.
