What is Bokeh?

"Bokeh" comes from Japanese (loosely translated "blurry", "fuzzy") and refers to a photography style, in which the aesthetic quality of a fuzzy representation is paramount.

The point is not per se to the use of blur, but the highest possible quality of those fuzzy areas in the context of the overall picture. Far from Bokeh was uncertainty has always been a style in photography that can be used by adjusting the depth of the lens very simple: Taken, for example, a single person or a car, can the viewer's attention by a strong blur in the background able to draw on the main subject. Conversely, one can appear and background in focus, while objects in the immediate vicinity camera blur almost surrealistic.

Bokeh makes exactly this game advantage, and describes the different types of display objects that are out of focus: the case of a natural host of sunlight pierced a forest blurs such as large, bright circles. If you drive the uncertainty gradually back, open it in ever clearer textures - the wait for the right moment between these steps is the essential art in bokeh.

It is however clear that "To Be or Not to Be" at the Bokeh is very subjective: Where does "ordinary" uncertainty and where does the artistic expression? Such questions will be answered very differently among photographers. Accordingly, it is not possible without further notice, a particular camera or lens to be particularly called for 'Bokeh-fit ". Among the various techniques but there are some that are particularly suited for such good shots: catadioptric lenses, for example, produce a strong and unmistakable bokeh effect, since the fuzzy points are not shown as slices, but as small rings.
