@ajay try night street photography with streetlights, you will get more beautiful results and an idea about DoF and bokeh

Nicely done, it takes people quite some time to understand this concept. Waiting for more pics

Installed Magic lantern on my 600D. Such a nice addon even though I havent used it to do anything yet. I was so enamoured by the no-shutter-movement-photo option (for night sky photos) but unfortunately it seems to be a very low resolution pic
But the focus assist, histogram, over-exposure alert etc are themselves something I would even pay for. Best of all, its extremely simple and apparently doesnt even void your warranty.

@marvelousprashant, @sujoyp, @nac, @pranav0091, @izzikio_rage, @abhidev - Thanks to all

@all,

pls correct me if im wrong.
from the online learning I did, the trick to getting great background blur(bokeh) are:
1) setting the widest Aperture
2 Getting as close to subject as possible
3) Get the Maximum possible zoom
4) The background should be at a max possible distance from the subject.

Anything wrong in the above 4 or anything else also is needed

 

[pranav0091]

^
Correct.

If I am permitted to be cheeky, then there is an ingredient mising - PRACTISE.

 

[ajay600]

yep... im just a 3 day old dslr owner
