Distracting Elements

Heartbreaker III

One of the reasons why a lens with good "bokeh" is prized is its ability to smoothly throw the background into washes of pure colour. This can help you isolate subjects by focus when the background is distracting. However, as you can see here, it is essential that there is nothing else to distract the eye. In this case, improper processing has caused a multitude of flaws on the film which themselves provide a distraction.
