CRITIQUE: BOKEH
Bokeh photography creates a blur in the out-of-focus area of an image. This technique can produce appealing, professional looking images. It can help your subject stand out to make the emphasis of your photography stand out. You may deliberately use a shallow focus technique to create images with prominent out-of-focus regions, accentuating their lens’s bokeh. It is often most visible around small background highlights, such as specular reflections and light sources, which is why it is often associated with such areas.[6] However, bokeh is not limited to highlights; blur occurs in all regions of an image which are outside the depth of field. Bokeh can also be produced during post-production.
