You Know You're Bored When...

You start taking photos of cake decorations in front of the Christmas Tree for something to do... 

Want to know how to create the heart bokeh?

All you need is a piece of card with a heart shape cut in it (not too big), then hold it or stick it in some way over your lens and using a wide aperture focus on your foreground objects and magically it will turn your background light source into heart shapes.

Easy-peasy...

  1. "Easy-peasy." Guh-huh.

    I long for the day when I'm bored into doing experiments like this, because it will mean I've mastered the basics and then some! I feel like such a bonehead these days!

    Pretty pictures! I just love bokeh - but when it appears in my photos, it's entirely accidental. :-)

  2. Good idea ! I glued little pictures of our faces on the gift boxes so that my 2 year old grandson could see to whom the parcel belonged. It was so cute !

I get many more views on my posts than comments, so please if you drop by, stop and say hello. Otherwise I'll start getting paranoid and neurotic, and worry that nobody likes me... sniff sniff...
