Bokeh... cliche or creativity

Tog-Talk

Unlock the secrets of creating stunning bokeh and elevate your photography game with our latest episode of Tog Talk! I'm Kevin Ahronson from the Hampshire School of Photography, and today, I'm tackling your most burning questions about photography. Prompted by David Emery's curiosity, we dive into what bokeh truly is, why it has skyrocketed in popularity in the digital age, and how it can dramatically improve the focus and quality of your images. Tune in to discover the fine art of achieving that dreamy background blur, master the nuances of controlling depth of field, and understand how your choice of lens and shooting distances can make all the difference.
But wait, there's more! We'll also be reflecting on whether the craze for bokeh is eclipsing other vital photographic techniques. Are we losing the art of environmental portraits that capture the essence of a scene? Together, we'll explore the pressures photographers face to stick to trends and the importance of staying true to your unique style. Whether you're a beginner eager to make your photos stand out from smartphone snaps or a seasoned pro looking to refine your craft, this discussion promises to be both enlightening and inspiring. Don't forget to submit your questions for future episodes—your voice is what makes Tog Talk truly special!
