The Bokeh & The Rain

Posted on: 30 November 2009

Well, it rained this weekend. A lot. I took advantage of this by capturing the view out of my window. I've got some really nice photos of the lights out of my window that, if they're far enough out of focus, appear as circular coloured blobs. This is better known to the photography minded individual as "bokeh" (pronounced "bow - kuh").

Here's the shot that I particularly liked. By focusing on the rain droplets on the window, I was able to throw the lights in the background far enough out of focus to achieve the effect in the photo.

The Bokeh & The Rain. Coming to a cinema near you soon.
