cup-o-bokeh

    for serious, how can you NOT love this shot???

    For CWD: Bokeh - Bokeh (from the Japanese boke ボケ, "blur") is a photographic term referring to the appearance of out-of-focus areas in an image produced by a camera lens. Different lens bokeh produces different aesthetic qualities in out-of-focus backgrounds, which are often used to reduce distractions and emphasize the primary subject.

      This is a good picture. I'd make a nice advertisement for "Verite Coffee"

      so to get this effect, do you back up as far as possible and zoom in super telephoto?

    22. fuzzirella (61 months ago | reply)

      - I used a 85mm 1.2 lens. I was probably about 3 feet away and I had the aperture all the way open on 1.2. The lens is a fixed local length so I couldn't do any zooming if I wanted to. :)

      This is true bokeh (by my definition of bokeh). Nicely done my friend. This could be an ad in a magazine.
