Bokeh

Bokeh refers to the technique of blurring of an image to add to the aesthetic quality of a photograph. The bokeh word, derived from the Japanese word "Boke" (pronounced "bo-keh"), translates literally as "confused." When a photographer wants to show a softer, slightly
bokeh will focus, without completely destroying the integrity of its definition.
Often confused with bokeh idea of ​​an image of the "sharpness". Instead of describing the focus point, however, bokeh is the blur background or foreground.
When an image in a camera lens is "development", the camera looks at the image point where most of the light gathered on the image to a fine point. However, if an image in focus, then the light appears as a diffuse disc, instead of a focused point. to create bokeh in an image is to blur the image, without recognition.
When bokeh is not used properly, the image that a combination of straight lines associated with the blur.
By contrast, bokeh produces an image made
​​correctly without sharp edges. Instead, the blur produced by bokeh suggests the image without distinct boundaries.
