Photo Challenge Week 8 - Dominant Depth of Field Blur

24 February 2016, 05:13


Canon EOS 70D, Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM lens, 1/250 seconds @ f/5.6, ISO 100.

This week’s challenge was make lots of bokeh. Not really a challenge for me, but it seems the guest posts are heading that way (the first one was freezing action, and I shoot a lot of football). Oh well.

Yesterday was our eighth wedding anniversary, and the Internet tells me that I’m to get my wife salt. So I got her some flowers. Anyway, I decided that I’d shoot some salt as the bokeh for this week’s challenge. Problem was, the salt shots were pretty boring. So I went and grabbed one of Melissa’s necklaces, shoved it in the salt, et voila. I pulled the blues way up, because the colour in actual piece of jewellery is very subtle, and made the image look very washed out.

If you look close enough, you can see my red ring in the clasp.
