One of my friends recently showed me some cool videos and photos shot with a shaped aperature. I did some research and it turns out it’s easy to make and produces some fun effects! I like the tutorial posted by Melly on her blog GreenLaundry. All you need are a few supplies (you crafty folks probably have all the supplies at hand) and a SLR camera.
Have you tried this? I would love to see your photos!

Hello friend from reddit. Canon’s 50mm f/1.8 II lens is great for taking bokeh pictures. don’t have anything to share yet, hopefully will find sometime to get into photography again. great blog!
I love this. I need an SLR to do this but I’m definitely keeping this on file for when I finally can buy one! Love your blog btw. =)
This is really cool! I’ll have to remember to try this eventually … once I get a bit better hang of my new DSLR.
Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing. I’ve never seen this technique before.
Thank you for showing me this! I love me D5000, and always wanting to try new things!
It’s a great technique!! The larger you can get your aperture, the better!
Over Christmas break, I made some with swirls, hearts, christmas trees, and more. It was a lot easier than I expected.
