About NOkeh Wednesday

“We come into this world head first and go out feet first; in between, it is all a matter of balance.”
~ Paul Boese

Looking for a place to compliment your addiction to bokeh? Welcome to Nokeh Wednesday. Post a shot with infinite focus and feel your sense of balance return.

Rules:
1. Only shots with NO BOKEH in site (sorry kids, I know it's a tough addiction to break, but if we see that beautiful blur the shot will be deleted - it's for the good of the group) In fact, we strongly recommend you try to post shots with at least f/8 or better. Heck, post an f/64 and watch us freak!
2. Only post on Wednesdays (please do your best - no one likes to have to be the calendar police)
3. Only 2 shots per member per week
4. Play nice!

WTH is Nokeh, anyway?
by iandoubleyou

NOkeh is the absence of bokeh, it's all about small apertures deep depth of field and general alloversharpness.

NOkeh is not the enemy of bokeh - together they bring balance. Just like...

Bacon & Eggs
Laurel & Hardy
Bubble & Squeak
Yin & Yang
No & prop 8
Left & right
PB & J
Fish & Chips
Gin & Tonic

OK that's enough - All of these things work well when paired together, so c'mon folks, embrace BOTH ends of your aperture dial!
