Bokeh: “a photographic term referring to the appearance of out-of-focus areas in an image produced by a camera lens using a shallow depth of field.” Bokeh was derived, probably within the past decade, from the Japanese term boke (ぼけ), meaning “blurred” or “fuzzy”. With a telephoto lens or a good f/2.0 or 2.8 prime lens you can achieve a great shallow depth of field. But the quality of the resulting bokeh depends on a couple of other factors: the available light, your composition and choice of colors, and most of all, the “spherical abberation” of your lens and the shape—polygonal or closer to circular—of your aperture. Not that enormous octagonal blots are necessarily ugly—it’s all in the eye of the beholder. I’m partial to entirely abstract pics like esko’s above, where shooting directly into lights produces big geometric, multicolored bokeh. Especially in the holiday season.
