planning for Project # 2: Bokeh effect in AV mode

sorry students, I try to come in today, but this coughing is not letting up...
so today you will read this article on Bokeh effect for portraits and fill in the following chart for attendance and participation. Find someone NOT taking photography class for subject. you can even try taking pictures of your pet too. https://digital-photography-school.com/how-to-achieve-nice-bokeh-in-plain-english/
BOKEH = noun.  a Japanese term for the subjective aesthetic quality of out-of-focus areas of a photographic image.

Below is a photo I took just the other day.  It is an example of an image with nice bokeh and how to use it effectively.

Annie Tao Photography bokeh example.

By blurring out the background, the entire image looks visually pleasing. You can’t even see she is standing on a sidewalk next to a parking lot!
