Generation

Bokeh refers to the aesthetic quality of the out-of-focus areas in a photograph, determined by lens characteristics like aperture shape and optical design. It's significant because pleasing bokeh helps isolate subjects from distracting backgrounds and creates a professional, artistic look. Different lenses produce distinct bokeh characteristics—some smooth and creamy, others busy or harsh—which photographers choose based on their creative vision.
