I Googled "bokeh effect" to learn more about this technique. The Christmas trees in your first images enchant me. They are magical. All of the images are impressive, but I'd send the third Christmas tree image as my Christmas cards if I found them in a shop. That is meant to be a true compliment. I love to send cards but I search for the unusual, rarely Hallmark. I often find photographic images that are unique as these would be.

The "bokeh" effect [as you know] is about what happens to background lights when captured out-of-focus. When applying a stencil to the lens, the light take on the shape of the stencil (out of focus) while the foreground image is retained in focus. What I tried to do was create a soft-focus effect on the lights themselves - rather then making them a backdrop.

Black Wings Chief Mouse ThomasQuinn jon_innuendo HelloDelilah Chopin1995 pg emrabt The Real Wizard Lord Fickle Raf katydyd5 ted CuppaJo badboybez Mustapha Ibrahim Egietjehi folks, been over to a local village [Ombersley] this morning in search of the Ombersley Hidden Waterfall. Those who refer to it as the hidden waterfall are not kidding. Talk about elusive. It's situated around 1 mile from the nearest road. The "public footpath" was almost quicksand in places, with any non-footpath elements being reduced to swamp...but [nonetheless] really worth the expedition. The "mission" was to capture the Milk Effect in flowing water. Settings: F/20, 1s, iso200 [two different lenses were used] - think I've managed to capture the Milk Effect nicely while also retaining some tone and colour in the water. This "effect" can easily be captured with a standard DSLR kit lens, and a relatively recent model Mobile Phone can do this too! you just need manual control, a means to keep the camera steady and timed/remote shutter release. I've managed to import 27 images as an mp4, and convert to gif. Now the milk Effect is "moving"

The gif is an interesting idea. This example could possibly do with losing a couple of frames at both extremes of exposure.

just a final handful from the UAE: That sunset photo is awesome, and I love the colour 'coordination' in the Lambourghini pic.

The first picture, I'm assuming it's a mosque, looks so clean. The white against the blue sky is stunning. Not a fan of camels! Did you ride one?
