Yesterday I mentioned that I had a bit of time on my hands and the trend seems to continue... As I sat on the couch reading a book, listening to Christmas music, sipping hot chocolate and soaking in the light from the tree I looked down at my phone (which is unfortunately always tethered to my person... Did you know there are support/recovery groups for these types of addictions? That's ridiculous...)
What's more ridiculous - is that I decided the view was photo worthy. Without even trying - the lights created their own little bokeh reflecting off my cell phone. And I spent the greater part of the evening fiddling with the camera. Taking pictures of the tree... the dog... the cell phone... the husband (who was rather obliging)... This is what happens when a photographer gets bored I suppose. No subject is safe.
wow that's a really clever way to capture bokeh! Great job getting the bokeh in the reflection of the phone!
ReplyDeleteLol....your post made me laugh!! What you said is SO true about bored photographers!! Very cute and creative!
ReplyDeleteCan never have too much bokeh- how pretty!
ReplyDeleteHey now.....that IS photo-worthy. I love Christmas bokeh. And, I love the idea of reflection in your iPhone. That is boredom, but boredom leads to creativity sometimes.
ReplyDeleteoh, that last one especially is super cool! definately photo-worthy! I don't have a blog, but you can stop over here:

There are some lovely results here and I like the line 'no subject is safe'- too true- I feel similarly obsessed!

I was pleasantly surprised when my ornaments hanging by a window created bokeh too :)
ReplyDeleteThat is SOOOOO cool!!! Bokeh is so much fun and I love how you saw it in the mundane.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, how creative! Great bokeh!
