Bokeh Lesson

We had a bokeh tutorial on night #2. It was difficult as hell using the kit lens, but we gave it a proper go.

TV
For this pic I wanted to make it seem like the TV was lighting Belle. I put the flash on the TV set, and exposed the shot to kill the ambient.

Like Old Times
It was quite dark in the garden so I had a hard time focusing, which explains the lack of sharpness. But I liked the rest of the pic, so there.

Tweetums
Here I tried a vertical composition to show as much of the backround lights as possible.

Tears, Almost
Rey shows off his acting skills. There are supposed to be tears.

Bokeh
This was right before one of the flashes tumbled off the garden chair where I placed it. (Which reminds me: I should try to fix that broken receiver.)

Under the Umrella
With one gone, I experimented with the placement of the remaining flash. I attached it to the pole of the giant umbrella stuck to the table and bounced the light off the multicolored canvas.
