hot summer - dreaming of a bright, glittery, sparkly bokeh

hot summer - dreaming of a bright, glittery, sparkly bokeh
The Sunday Challenge (9 August `15)
Bright/glittery/sparkly - the kind of bokeh background which is man made possibly with shapes included. You know the kind you make by placing a cutout in front of the lens.
---------------------------------------------------------
3 days, 3 cameras, 2 empty batteries, 300 shots later:
bokeh NEVER will be my hobby !!!
.......
PiP (left): my best (!) result (the simple way)
PiP (right): my most surprising result .... to make an attempt with "cutout in front of the lens"

Fallnetöm, , Angelofruhr, Thérèse and 34 other people have particularly liked this photo

Ja - wird doch! ;-DD
Mein Sterndl hat allerdings das andere Frosch-Bokeh bekommen! Und so was, wie deine Blüte, hatte ich auch in allen Varianten, Herzchen, Sternchen... ;-DD

... na ja, immerhin was gelernt (auch wenn`s 3 Tage Stocherns im Nebel gebraucht hat):
der Abstand zwischen Objekt und Lichtquelle macht die Größe des Bokehs.

Hurra ! Jetzt hat sie`s.

Schöne neue Woche für Dich,
herzlichst

Hi, Wendi,
thank you so much for giving me support in the last days.

This challenge remembers me in the "panning-action":
needs a lot of days, a lot of mishaps - but when Sunday was gone ..... I/we got a flash of inspiration ....

You make a very good job !
Thanks again,
Heidiho

Good job and I'm with you on the amount of EFFORT! Your top left note has bokeh which looks like under water bubbles.

Thanks a lot, Jan !

.. this little green pieces are from acrylic glass, make a fine sparkling effect
(I understood after 2 days of mishap)

Diese Frösche stehen seit Jahren auf meinem Balkon herum; mir fehlte bisher immer ein Anlaß, Ihnen eine Hauptrolle zukommen zu lassen. Für diese Bokeh-Aktion bei 40 Grad kamen sie mir wie gerufen ... über`s Thema selbst müßten wir uns vielleicht mal vor Ort
(Oktober !? November ?!) unterhalten.

An Beleuchtung von hinten sollte es an beiden Terminen nicht mangeln ....

Mußte schon wieder arbeiten ?
Auf jeden Fall: schöne neue Woche für Dich, Uwe.

... die haben auf jeden Fall weniger geschwitzt auf dem Balkon als ich, Chrissy !

Hab` nochmal herzlichen Dank für Deine hilfreichen Erklärungen.
Irgendwann setzt Ihr das Thema sicher in TSC wieder mal auf die Tagesordnung,
dann weiß ich wenigstens, wie`s gehen könnte.

Gute neue Woche für Dich.

Heidiho club has replied to Ulrich John club
Uff, Ulli, wenn Du wüßtest !
Vorige Woche wußte ich noch nicht, was ein Bokeh ist - nun sollte ich plötzlich eins machen "man made" - you know ? Ein Alptraum !

Wünsch Dir einen guten Start in die neue Woche; man sieht sich !
8 years ago.
Ulrich John club has replied to Heidiho club
Och, sieht doch gut aus ! By the way: ich kann das auch nicht; da fehlt mir wohl das Programm; so lass ich's die Kamera machen. Manchmal macht sie's richtig gut ! Schöne Woche wünsch ich dir ! LG Ulrich

Heidiho club has replied to Taormina club
Dank Dir, Katja - vor allem für Deine aufbauenden Worte im Vorfeld.

Die schwerste Aufgabe in den letzten 3 Tagen hatte allerdings mein Mann;
der mußte sich ständig mein Gemaule anhören und meine schlechte Laune mit Langmut ertragen
(ich glaub`, er ist einfach nur erleichtert, daß dieser Sonntag jetzt überstanden ist ).

Ich find`s übrigens schön, daß Du jetzt auch regelmäßig bei TSC mitmachst.
Hab` schon so viel Aha-Effekte hier gehabt ...

Komm gut in die neue Woche rein !

Heidiho club has replied to Gisela Plewe club
... das hab' ich bewußt für die Sonntagsaufgabe ausgewählt.
Bokeh nicht als Selbstzweck, sondern zur dezenten Abrundung.

Hast Du meine Ipermail gefunden (ist schon paar Tage alt)?

Believe me: I prefer a good old abandoned place .... "man made bokeh" was sooo frustrating.

Thank you, William.

Heidi, these shots are fantastic!

You have done so well in this challenge - really impressive - I love the frogs, and the flower through the cut-out is stunning!

Heidiho club has replied to PaulOClassic©
Paul, you are the one, exactly understands the feeling during this challenge ....
so much confusion and frustration ... I hated my cameras because they always did unexpected things .... but, in the end: we got it, Paul, we got it !!!!!

I love the one in the note with all the sparkle. The one with the cut out is also very nice, but to get the right effect you should focus on the flowers not the cutout which has to be right up against the lens.
8 years ago.
Heidiho club has replied to H C
Oh, this "cutout action" was the most frustrating action of all.
Now I got some advices HOW to do it right ... may be next time ....

Thank you so much !

May be this frogs enjoy 40 degrees on their balcony.
For me it is too much, makes sooo lazy.

Thank you, Gillian !

Heidiho club has replied to Valfal
Urk, Val !
I remember, when TSC reached its 2. birthday, you said something very interesting. -
This Sunday challenges are a good school to become a better photographer.
Show your own possibilities. Do you remember ? I mean, you are absolute right. -
Some of my photos here in IP never would exist without TSC.
Because of a strange topic or an unknown photographic technique or processing.

So ... see you ! Next Sunday !

Well done Heidi ... I like the one in the box on the left but you made the challenge with each of the images. :)

Sorry for the delay in commenting.

Thank you so much Chris !
I think, this was the hardest challenge of all times.
(sorry, I'm a member only since the end of 2014 .. )
Hope to learn a lot !

Enjoy your time,
