Getting ready for some holiday bokeh 🎄

For some years i have been playing with bokeh in all kinds of ways , with the coming the holidays i thought about another way to use bokeh again.

What you need are some christmas decoration LED's bought mine 180 lights for €18.- this morning.

Some lenses with apperture 2.8 or less, I have 5 of those so i didn't have to purchase that .

Some cut out symbols or bokeh kit from aliexpress 🇨🇳
i bought 2 set's one for 49mm and one for 58mm with extra symbols .
you click these on the fron of your lens without damaging anything.

But if you are good with a cutting knife you can always cut your own, like @fraenk did some years ago in his post.

So time for some test shoots:

hang up the christmas LED's in the attic

check if the bokeh works with the lens

Jupiter-8 85mm 2.0 with 49mm BOKEH cap with heart symbol.

The 25mm cctv lens next to the Jupiter , to small to work with the symbols.

so we are going to pick the Jupiter tonight

The Sigma 105mm didn't work to well on such a short distance for this.

Smileys

question marcs

and now with a subject we all know ,photography is an expensive hobby

but same say love can be expensive too

and finally 2 shots with the helios i hope to do some portrait shoots later this week .

i could show all the symbols that came with the package but that wouldn't improve the quality of the post i think.

There will be more soon it just takes time to set things up .
