Composition is one of the most important aspects of photography. A well-chosen, clear subject that viewers can focus their attention on makes a good composition.

You can achieve this by keeping any distracting element outside of the frame when composing the photograph. Another way to make your subject stand out is by blurring the background when capturing the shot. A blurred background can not only make the subject stand out, but it can also complement it and add to the composition.

A background blur, also popularly known as ‘bokeh', can be created using a number of methods like using a large aperture, utilizing a long focal length, or moving in close to your subject.This post is a collection of photographs that make great use of background blur in achieving an excellent composition. We hope that they inspire you to create such photos of your own.

The lens in focus

“Life is like a camera. Just focus on what’s important and capture the good times, develop from the negatives and if things don’t work out, just take another shot.” — Unknown
