Wow Chrysti...these are beautiful! Thank you for sharing them.
Yes indeed, this is a lovely collection of bokeh textures. I've used a few of these myself! And I see several that have inspired my creativity.
I like bokeh while taking close up shots..i take bokehs wit diffrnt shapes n sizes...creating ur own bokeh is vry simple..u jus need to cut and shape the sheet to make a fake lens hood.Cut out the middle of the filter for a desire bokeh shape.Eg: On the 50mm lens @ F1.8 a 15mm heart gives a metering value equal to F3.2..n thr u go take as many snaps u require wit diffrnt shapes n sizes of bokeh...
How do I download these??
