Bokeh (暈け or ボケ) - 10-11-2011, 10:30 AM

Are you familiar with this technique? It's a photography technique of Japanese origin that involves the aesthetic of blurred photos. My friend and I were trying out this technique, but we haven't gotten around to buying a kit yet so instead we created our own bokeh filters out of construction paper haha.

Here's an example video that we shot of what bokeh looks like using a paper filter.

I'm not a cynic; I just like to play Devil's Advocate once in a while.
