Photography Masterclass Magazine Issue 48 Edizione posteriore

Christmas is a great time for photography and with all the colourful Christmas lights around it's the perfect opportunity to create some beautiful bokeh images. Using Christmas lights as a backdrop you can create beautiful and unusual out of focus balls of light behind your subject. This technique takes a bit of practice but is pretty simple once you get it right, and in this issue, we show you exactly how to create gorgeous bokeh effects with your own Christmas lights to make some truly beautiful and artistic images.

Also in this issue:

+ We show you exactly how to find and use the sweet spot of your lens, so you can always get the sharpest images possible with the lens you have.

+ We interview extreme sports photographer, Denis Klero, who's been shooting for Red Bull since 2007. He has travelled all around the world for his work and considers his most memorable location to be Mount Everest, where he covered an extreme base-jumping project.
