Description I know, shame on me - a bokeh tutorial...an actual tutorial on the damn stuff. Some people probably want to throw shoes at me and begin affending my mother D:

I couldnt help it! Some people just ask me how i got this effect, how i got that effect, is it real? did you manipulate that? are you jesus in disguse? The answer to all of these and more.

- - - - - -
This tutorial is a tad longer then my others - but i just couldnt help myself - plus there may be spelling mistakes hidden somewhere amoung all that macro nonsense so please reframe from reminding me...unless i misspelt my name or something. Alot of writting as usual - but i'm not in the mood to take behind the scene shots and then use them - this is effort alone. If there is anything that needs explaining - god help me - then i'll b happy to go over it with you. I do try to emphasize the fact that you need to flash and a lens with mannual focus....as well as the point i make about out of focus-ness...i'm not patronising you i just live amoung idiots...and am one also.


Your probably going to want to download this...

Have fun! I know i did....

Rainy day

EDIT
Oh forgot to mention the irony of the texture i used - i'm sure someone might have noticed.

Excellent tutorial! I've been asked similar questions a few times but never took the time to write such tutorial. Yours is perfect though! I'll refer artists to it, you have such beautiful pictures as a result of your technique

Awww that sucks! My cheal li'l Casio is held together by tape but still working like new lol. >.< At least you can obtain a job to gain some money to buy a new one Where I am, I'm not yet old enough for a job haha.

Nariscuss In reply to ishtrish [2010-01-14 00:48:51 +0000 UTC]

D: obtain a job! HAHA! UK is currently in bad times after we gave massive sum of money to the US to bail them out of money troubles - in effect landing us right in it. We entered a short recession - only just recovering - i am old enough to get a job yes; but there are over 21 thousand other people seeking jobs when there is no work to be had ;__;

Nariscuss In reply to scream-for-silence [2010-01-11 22:47:17 +0000 UTC]

I've used christmas tree decor of shiny beads, they do work really well, as do pretty gems. So much to fit into one tutorial D:
