December Assignments: Bokeh and Refelections. Your reflections can be those that  that make us reflect. For an understanding of Bokeh click here. There are lots of examples on the web. There are also many great books on photography at the library. While the term bokeh is not used, there are lots of chapters on blurr and depth of field. All you need is a library card to borrow the photography books.
