DIY: Bokeh Heart Photos
Friday, June 3, 2011 at 2:37PM I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a very good photographer. Scratch that, I'm terrible. It takes incredible patience and focus- both qualities I would likely leave off of my resume. That's why the automatic setting on my camera is my pretty much my best friend. So when I saw this tutorial, a little knot formed in the pit of my stomach. I was torn. Should I try to teach myself how take real pictures again? Believe it or not, back in college I actually knew how to set the aperture and shutter speed, I've just inconveniently forgotten ever since the class ended. But this aweeesome Bokeh Heart Lens DIY has made me want to pick up my camera and start shooting again... because... look how cool this is! I've seen shots like this before- not knowing how they were done (I was just hoping it wasn't photoshop!) But now that I know I can do it myself... the ideas are running wild. I can't resist a good DIY- and needless to say, this one is pretty darn tempting! FOUND HERE.

Very fun! I haven't experimented with this technique yet but I'm sure I will in the near future :)

I didn't realize you could get an effect like that without digital photo editing. That's so clever. :3
