I Used The Bokeh Method To Capture Snails (35 Pics)

ADVERTISEMENT

I present a series of photos with snails, made using the bokeh method.

I live in Poland. I have been dealing with artistic photography for 8 years. I especially like photographing snail motifs.

Photography is my passion, a kind of meditation, giving me relaxation and a reset from the hardships of everyday life.

Bokeh is a transliteration of the Japanese word bo-ke, which means blur. We pronounce the word "boke." In photography, it is a way of rendering out-of-focus objects beyond the depth of field. Photographers sometimes deliberately use this shallow focus technique to create photos with visible areas out of focus.

I love snails. I always save them from the sidewalk or the sun. Sometimes I even order a salad to my job so they can refuel and rehydrate before I let them go in a safer spot. I have videos of them eating carrot strips!

These photos are just amazing, when I go to Poland in summer I love the colours of the light in the evening, the orange is just beautiful and I always try and get good photos, there's just so much inspiration in the Polish countryside

Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda. As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience. Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).
