Depth of Field or Bokeh

Assignment #5 DOF:

This is actually one of my favorite techniques in Photography. It's called Shallow Depth of Field or Bokeh. The idea is focus in the subject and blur the rest (back ground and/or foreground). I like they way it makes your eye go straight to what you are wanting to be the subject of your picture. I've seen it with Christmas lights in the background and I love the way that looks. However... I seem to be at a loss for decorated Christmas tress at the moment- it being February and all- so I'll have to try those pictures next winter. :)
