70+ Stunning Examples of Bokeh Photography

The term bokeh is derived from a Japanese word which means “blur.” In photography, bokeh is the aesthetic quality of the blur, or the effect of the out-of-focus regions of an image. This technique is usually done in order to make the main subject stand out in the photo. Lens aberrations and shape of lens aperture are the major things that help in achieving bokeh.
It’s not easy to say what a “good” bokeh is and what is not. For me, anything that is less distracting and gives the main subject in the photo emphasis and beauty, I think, is a good bokeh photo. Below are the 72 stunning examples of bokeh photos that I have found all over the web.

Sunset Photography: 35 most memorable sunset pictures

Many people are fascinated with the view of sunset. That is why sunset has been one of the most popular photography scenes that we come across. For photographers, every sunset provides an opportunity to capture a unique scene, with different set of clouds or things in foreground. Photographing a sunset view also gives you infinite variations of colors in one evening itself. However, sunset photography can be trickier than what you initially thought. So here are some quick tips on how to successfully capture a beautiful sunset scenery without even with your simple point-and-shoot camera.

  1. First of all, you need to have a camera (preferably a DSLR so you can have full control of your aperture and shutter speeds) and a tripod or a steady place to rest your camera.
  2. Think about your composition. You should have a clear idea on how you want to capture your sunset scene. Take into consideration the clouds, the shades and colors as well as the objects in the foreground.
  3. Go down on the exposure if you are shooting the sun with the whole sky. Underexposing your scenery gives you a perfect back lit picture and results in more saturated colors.
  4. When shooting sunsets, you need lots of patience as it usually takes several minutes in order for you to get the perfect picture you are looking for. Take lots of shots as the scenery changes from one minute to another, giving you lots variations of shades and colors of the sky.

To get you inspired, here are 35 best examples of sunset photography. You can view the larger versions of this image from the authors’ page. Make sure to checkout the other photographs from each author as they usually have large.

Understanding Tilt Shift Photography Plus Amazing Examples

Tilt-shift photography actually refers to the use of camera movements on small- and medium-format cameras, and sometimes specifically refers to the use of tilt for selective focus, often for simulating a miniature scene (-wikipedia). Viewing this type of photos gives you a feeling you looking at a miniature of something like a scenery, for example,or an aerial view of a city.

There are two ways to achieve this effect. One is by producing it optically using tilt-shift lens. The other way to do this is by using post processing image software by simulating shallow depth of field. To produce tilt-shift photographs optically, there are two basic movements involved–first is the rotation of the lens plane relative to the image plane, called tilt, and second is the movement of the lens parallel to the image plane, called shift. Photographers use the tilt movement to control the orientation of the plane of focus, making specific parts of an image to appear sharp. Shift, on the other hand, is used to adjust the position of the subject in the image area without moving the camera back, avoiding the convergence of parallel lines such as in photographing tall buildings.

To give you an idea of what we are talking about here, we decided to pool together 30 amazing examples of tilt-shift pictures produced either optically (using tilt-shift lens) or through digital processing. Links below each image is provided so you can check out the high-quality versions of this photographs. We also encourage to view similar creations from these photographers.

Atmosferic


This is a photo sequence of 42 stacked shots, caught in Olympic Stadium, Athens during a severe thunderstorm. It only took me aproximatelly 30 minutes to capture 51 lightnings.
Nine shots were destroyed because of the excess brightness. See also the waterdrops from the drain pipe. They seem 'still' as they instlantly illuminated from the lightnings.
The answer to the crucial question: No... The big one didn`t hit me on the head! It stroke a few hundred feet in front of me..


Canon EOS 550D, 28/6/2010 1:16 - 1:48, Shutter Speed 3.2 sec x 42 shots, Aperture Value 4.0, ISO 100, Lens Canon EF 15mm f/2.8, Focal Length 15.0 mm
