Hayley. Class of 2027.
A little photographic experimentation.
This is a technique called the Brenizer Method, also known as a bokeh panorama. I photographed Hayley in 28 separate frames using an 85mm lens at f/1.4, then stitched them together in Photoshop.
The finished image has roughly the look of a 28mm lens at f/0.46. (estimate)
The result is a photograph with the wide view of a much shorter lens, but with the incredibly shallow depth of field of a longer portrait lens. Essentially, something that would be nearly impossible to capture in a single photograph.
Fun. I about killed Photoshop, tho...
