I love how the narrow depth of field turned out here, well at least at the left side of the image. Should've taken some more control over the lightning (sorry, spontanous portrait), some strange yellow hue got reflected on the left side of his face, which was kinda sloppily removed. The non-web version looks better, as the sRGB became over saturated and I'm too tired to color manage it.

Pretty but I would not call it bokeh
It's an out of focus image. sorry just my opinion.

Bokeh has a point of focus with a blurred background. Selecting an appropriate f stop creates the effect.
I disagree. The definition of bokeh is "a photographic term referring to distorted out-of-focus areas in an image produced by a camera lens". Th image does not have to contain a point in focus.

Also, this thread is supposed to have images AND lens info people.

Different lens bokeh produces different aesthetic qualities in out-of-focus backgrounds, which are often used to reduce distractions and emphasize the primary subject.

...bokeh does not require in-focus photos, according to some sources...

Bokeh (from the Japanese (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_language) boke ぼけ, "blur") is a photographic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic) term referring to distorted out-of-focus areas in an image produced by a camera (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera) lens (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_lens).[1] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bokeh#_note-0)

Bokeh describes the rendition of out-of-focus points of light.

Sorry, but I had to add the second quote. :lol:

I believe you should have said "I don't like the bokeh", not "It's not bokeh". It's clearly bokeh. Bokeh quality can be discussed in relation to the photo, but you can't change the definition of what bokeh is.

A sharp subject and a blurred OOF background is a good example of subject isolation and is attractive to most people's eyes, but the existence of a sharp subject does not speak to the subjective quality of the portion that is OOF.

Um no. Just because an image has nice bokeh doesn't make it a keeper, and likewise just because it is a keeper doesn't mean it has nice bokeh. But as seen by Futura's shot an image does not have to be in focus for people to like it. There are other attributes to an image.

Desertraptor

23rd of August 2007 (Thu), 23:03

Fair enough

As I said I didnt say I didnt like the shot it just was not what I considered a bokeh shot to my understanding of the term

futura

24th of August 2007 (Fri), 05:31

Didn't know I had sparked off a bit of debate :p

The aim of the shot was to create an abstract using the OOF blur. For me is the lights and the shapes the lens creates that forms the image.

Sorry about not including picture data. Original now ammended.

I think these are both the same. Rockwell states... "Bokeh describes the rendition of out-of-focus points of light". He didn't say there wasn't or had to be an in focus primary subject..:D

Personally I don't mind either way.... a pleasure to the eye is just that.. a pleasure and if someone was sharp (pun) enough to spot the photo opportunity then okay in my book. :cool:

The true definition:
Webster's New Millennium™ Dictionary of English (http://dictionary.reference.com/help/wmde.html) - Cite This Source (http://dictionary.reference.com/cite.html?qh=bokeh&ia=wmde)
Main Entry: bokeh
Part of Speech: n
Definition: a Japanese term for the subjective aesthetic quality of out-of-focus areas of a photographic image
Example: The bokeh, or quality of the blurred image in the photograph, was described and discussed.

My opinion from everything I've read bokeh is the out-of-focus areas created by the lens diaphragm blades. The more blades a lens has, the rounder these areas will look. In my opinion (right or wrong) a silky smooth background, which looks great, is just OOF and not true bokeh.

I agree that some of these shots are just OOF backgrounds else every lens would produce good bokeh simply by shooting the background OOF.

Hee Hee! I think his description was apt though but ..... bokeh exists to help hi-light another focal point in a photograph. i.e. So the eye isn't distracated from a good portrait shot bokeh exists in the background (or forground in still life).

It is the same principle applied in the art world. To make a feature stand out.... subdue everything around it.

Now if Warhol had said it.... we would all have listened....:lol::lol:

What a great portrait, fantastic! I think it would look great in B&W too.

But which lens ? the 100mm f/2.8 macro ?

Actually I shot it with the EF24-105mmIS. This is now officially the favorite lens in my bag.;)

Here is one of mine I found first on Flickr. Taken with a 5D - when I had one (stolen along with 4 lenses last month)

Not quite sure if it counts as bokeh, but the background savannah is nicely blurred.

That shot is great as it is, but with a little sharpening, it would be fantastic.
