Bokeh Effect

Hi everyone!

When I photograph flowers, I like to create a bokeh effect.
It embellishes a photo and looks attractive.
This effect isn't difficult to create at all (provided, of course, you have a good lens - a compact camera will not give such an effect).
it is advisable, as in the case of the "effect of raindrops", to take pictures against the direction of the light.

My lens Nikkor 50mm 1/8 produces excellent bokeh at multiple aperture ranges.
With a value of f/4.5, the circles of the light are very clear and sometimes repeat the outlines of the 7-blade diaphragm.

And with a value of f/2-2.5, a very beautiful background of half-blurred circles superimposed on each other is obtained.

Do you agree that this is very beautiful?

Have a nice and creative day!
