Man, I was afraid shaped apertures would come out…
What about adding “Note: Bokeh refers to the out of focus/blurred elements in an image. Show us images that use bokeh creatively.” ?

You know…that actually works! It’s no “It’s blurry muthafarka!” but it has the benefit of being concise! 🙂

This coming from the queen of the lensbaby. Why were you afraid?
August 17, 2011 at 11:36 pm #29320ElsinoreKeymasterCause I don’t have anything that spiffy. I’ve got some more vase marble stuff similar to things I’ve done/used before, but I’m not feeling them. I’ve got some candle stuff, but not sure how well it play. I’m reasonably certain there’d be better stuff in the thread.

//It’s working.HAH! Then I say we just post: “Bokeh: It’s Blurry Muthafarka!” 😛
I have read this several times, and I can’t read it in anything but Samuel L. Jackson’s voice.
August 18, 2011 at 12:32 am #29323ravnosticParticipantI just racked up 1163 outtakes and 51 maybes that will cull out maybe two keepers. This better damn well be worth it.
Uh…I’d say it was worth it. 😀
Dayum. Hope there was something between the camera and the blade.
August 18, 2011 at 12:38 am #29324kashariParticipantCRAP CRAP CRAP!! I forgot to choose pics last night and just got home with dilated pupils after my eye exam…I can’t see shit and EVERYTHING is bokeh! lol Well, I’m gonna be late to the party tonight, that’s for sure.
I haven’t looked at the desc or any of the pics yet, but I did like your suggestion, Elsinore.
August 18, 2011 at 12:43 am #29325orionidParticipantAyes and Bees, with one or two that were used in previous contests but still had a “bokeh” tag.
August 18, 2011 at 12:45 am #29326U-ManParticipantDifficult choices tonight. Here are some Bees

Thanks. The blade was actually moving more vertically than horizontally. I hit the body of the camera once (and missed a heartbeat) then suddenly found myself sheepish on every attempt after that. The axe came out with DoF exactly as I pictured, but a little off center. I decided that I could live with that rather than keep worrying about reinventing the phrase “camera axe.” So then I went and got out the guns.

I really like that lily and the rain shot.
