I really am liking your concept of “foreground bokeh” and showing the environment in which the bird Iives. I am really trying to incorporate those concepts in my shots this summer and it is making a big difference! Thanks!!

Thanks for that Scott. You introduced me to foreground blur, and I try to incorporate it whenever possible.

I could not have picked a better show to start my day. I loved the framing with the flowers. I recently did that with purples at the cliffs.

Impressive cliff site and very beautiful photos👍🏼 Although I don’t like the blurry foreground, I find it distracting, my eyes always wander to this bright blurry spots instead of watching the nice bird🤔

Hi Brendan. Glad you enjoyed the video . Your comment is one of the most frequent ones I get, so I'm going to see if I can work on something to give you some more tips on situations where you can't get down low or up high and might be a future video. Thanks for watching.

Great video, excellent information and fantastic photos. Only negative...please don't stand so close to the edge of the cliffs when talking to camera...it makes me very uncomfortable :)

Glad you enjoyed it, other than me being near the edge of the cliffs. Don't worry, if the footage made it on to KZitem it means I didn't fall. Thanks for watching.

Photos look amazing man. So just wanting to check see if I want to blur everything out apart from the subject do I then place the focus point box on the subject? Colin,
@barneylaurance1865
Ай бұрын
Yes, place the focus point on the subject. And you can increase the blur by any of: - a - using a wider aperture (smaller f number), b - using a longer focal length (zooming in) - c getting physically closer to the subject. d - blurring later in post production. D may have problems if the subject overlaps the stuff you want to blur in the image, while a lens capable of wider aperture, longer focal length or closer focusing distance may by expensive if you're already working at the limits of your lens's capabilities.

Hi Colin. I can answer that. I've also got a video coming out on that subject soon, where I'll be able to go into more detail than in this comment. I think there might be two others videos first, but keep your eye out for it. Coming back to your question. You definitely want the focus point on the subject, ideally on it's eye. There's a really easy way to blur out everything and the key to it is the distances between you, the foreground, the subject and the background. Try to make sure the background is at least twice the distance from the subject as the subject is from you. And try to make sure the foreground is nearer to you than it is to the subject. There are lots of other technical aspects that you can consider, like the aperture, but if you follow the thinking I've outlined in this comment you'll get nice blurry backgrounds and foregrounds for pretty much any aperture. It'll give you a good start until I can go into more details in the video. Thanks for your question and for watching.
