Depending on how a lens is corrected for spherical aberration, the disc may be uniformly illuminated, brighter near the edge, or brighter near the center. In out-of-focus areas, each point of light becomes an image of the aperture, generally a more or less round disc. When used in portrait photography (for their 'natural' perspective), the photographer usually wants a shallow depth of field, so that the subject stands out sharply against a blurred background.Д«okeh characteristics may be quantified by examining the image's circle of confusion. Good bokeh is also important for medium telephoto lenses (typically 85вЂ“150 mm on 35 mm format). 'Good' bokeh is especially important for macro lenses and long telephoto lenses, because they are typically used in situations that produce shallow depth of field. Though difficult to quantify, some lenses have subjectively more pleasing out-of-focus areas.

The depth of field is the region where the size of the circle of confusion is less than the resolution of the human eye. It is sometimes pronounced / Л€ b oКЉ k Й™/ BOH-kЙ™. The spellings bokeh and boke have both been in use since at least 1996, when Merklinger had suggested 'or Bokeh if you prefer.' The term bokeh has appeared in photography books as early as 1998. The English spelling bokeh was popularized in 1997 in Photo Techniques magazine, when Mike Johnston, the editor at the time, commissioned three papers on the topic for the May/June 1997 issue he altered the spelling to suggest the correct pronunciation to English speakers, saying 'it is properly pronounced with bo as in bone and ke as in Kenneth, with equal stress on either syllable'. The related term bokashi ( жљ€гЃ‹гЃ—) means intentional blurring or gradation that is a noun form of the transitive verb bokasu ( жљ€гЃ™), which means to make something blurry, rather than to be blurry. Tobokeru means playing dumb, and toboketa kao refers to a poker face. Nebokeru ( еЇќгЃјгЃ‘г‚‹) is a verb denoting the actions or condition of someone who is half-asleep, or nodding off. Jisaboke ( ж™‚е·®гѓњг‚±) (literally, 'time difference fog') is the term for jet lag. This is derived as a noun form of the verb bokeru, which is written in several ways, with additional meanings and nuances: жљ€гЃ‘г‚‹ refers to being blurry, hazy or out-of-focus, whereas the жѓљгЃ‘г‚‹ and е‘†гЃ‘г‚‹ spellings refer to being mentally hazy, befuddled, childish, senile, or playing stupid. The term comes from the Japanese word boke ( жљ€гЃ‘/гѓњг‚±), which means 'blur' or 'haze', resulting in boke-aji ( гѓњг‚±е‘і), the 'blur quality'. However, bokeh is not limited to highlights blur occurs in all regions of an image which are outside the depth of field. Photographers may deliberately use a shallow focus technique to create images with prominent out-of-focus regions, accentuating their lens's bokeh.Д«okeh 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. Some lens designs blur the image in a way that is pleasing to the eye, while others produce distracting or unpleasant blurring ('good' and 'bad' bokeh, respectively). Differences in lens aberrations and aperture shape cause very different bokeh effects. Bokeh has also been defined as 'the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light'. The вЂ Blue Snow BokehвЂ™ photo effect looks perfect when it is applied to your winter photos.In photography, bokeh ( / Л€ b oКЉ k Й™/ BOH-kЙ™ or / Л€ b oКЉ k eЙЄ/ BOH-kay Japanese: ) is the aesthetic quality of the blur produced in out-of-focus parts of an image. As a result, edited images instantly acquire a jolly and festive look. This effect adds multi-color blurred lights to photos along with almost transparent fir tree texture.
