Decrease the highlights and exposure is the first thing that comes to mind :fist_right:t5:

Unfortunately a cell phone doesn’t make it easy to take a shot with bokeh (the “theme”), but I took this the other day at a friends house when I visited him early in the evening when the full moon was low on the horizon. It’s not a traditionally pretty photo, but I thought the different lights made it a bit more interesting.


Pixel 2XL, exactly as it came off the phone, except to remove the street name on the sign and to resize it to 600x800.

Not a recent pic (2016 in fact), but taken on a phone that does not have a portrait mode - I just got very close in and got the blurred background.

Michael,
Wow that’s an incredible transformation.

Really appreciate that.

Thanks

@PHolder I Just wanted to mention that portrait mode on your phone’s camera app can be used for more than just photos of people. It has algorithmic bokeh. Here is a comparison:

Reverse bokeh if there is such a thing.

Saw this from my back door this morning and grabbed the tripod. Nikon D7500 300mm with a remote shutter release, added some green and yellow saturation to the foreground leaves and an AI Structure mask to the moon with Luminar 4. First time I’ve used back-button focusing @ant_pruitt :+1:t2:

Just some quick-and-dirty shots of my build of a PiDP-11 kit, which I got in the post the week from Oscar Vermeulen.

I recently decided to visit the New York Public Library for the first time in quite a while. It’s a national treasure in my opinion. Sorry about not going with the whole bokeh theme.

That is interesting. My desk is right next to a kitchen cabinet, so I grabbed the first thing at hand and set it to the front of the counter.

Thanks for the hint. I will use this for product shots I put in my blog.

The iPhone X was on portrait mode with natural lighting. Straight out of the phone.
