A bit of an experiment.

My entry for *Sortvind's contest

I don't know why the quality always of my photos gets so screwed up when I post them... ah well.

All of your photos are SO cool! Do you have any tips for doing a bokeh effect?

Thank you!
Depends on if you're shooting outdoors or indoors. If you're shooting indoors I usually use Christmas lights, set against a dark background so the wires are hidden and the colors stand out more. Glitter works well too if you want smaller bokeh, even though it makes a huge mess!
Outdoors you will get the best bokeh by shooting against leafy trees, the light shining through them creates a beautiful effect!
Either way the lower your aperture and longer your focal length, the more blurred your bokeh will be.
Hope this helps, sorry for how late this reply is!

Are the colours just lights in the backgound?
