Rainy day here at home, decided to use my new EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens. Very happy with my Christmas gift. The ducks are my niece bath toys...

 

Super fun!

 

Nifty Fifty to the rescue! LOL

 

I did it by making a circle around my ornament, blurring the back, then erasing some of the edges of the sharp center to blend it in. Thanks for the challenge!!!

And yes, this little guy is still sitting on my mantle, with my other decorations. Time to change that out I guess.

 

I guess a long time ago I'd used the Snapseed app, but then deleted it. So it was fun reloading it and actually playing with it! Loved how the shallow depth of field helped this photo!!!

 

I love technique challenges. I learn so much. Great pages here.

 

I had to re-do the layout. I was finished and going to save when my computer locked up & ruined the file. I had to start from scratch.



I don't have the Iris blur on my pse, so I used my Canon camera and it worked well.

 

Super fun!! I needed to document my need for coffee on the first day back to work after Christmas break!
