Today I’m trying something new for me. I wanted to take a shot to a car model I found at the office, and I wanted a great bokeh as a background.
So i shot with a 1.8 aperture but the only thing that was in focus was the right front light of the car.
So I remembered a technique to fix things up.
It’s quite basic, you need to take some shots of the subject with different focus point and than merge them together.
I took this shots:
After a fast edit on Lightroom I went to photoshop and I imported the pictures as different layers. Then, with all layers selected, I went to edit→ auto align layers and opted for “auto” projection.
Right after that, I went back to edit→ auto blend layers and selected “stack images”. That’s it, photoshop magically merge the shots in one perfect image.
Here it is the result after some black and white editing!
Hope you enjoyed! See you tomorrow!
Every day I post at least one photo from my life. Here’s why.
