Bokeh effect

The Bokeh effect occurs when a camera lens creates a pleasing blur in the background of a photo while keeping the main subject sharp. This happens because of how the lens shapes the out-of-focus points of light, often resulting in smooth, rounded blur spots. Bokeh helps draw attention to the subject by isolating it from the background, adding aesthetic quality and depth to images. It’s especially noticeable in photographs with wide apertures and shallow depth of field, producing a soft, artistic backdrop that enhances visual interest.
