ok, so i went to daiso yesterday after dinner to look for "paper shape cutters" or whatever you call that. uberly love shopping at daiso.
i got the star design and the music note one. it's saddening to say that i was unable to find the snow flake design one, which was however available at popular bookstore, but costing $6.90.
and so, i went home to create my own d.i.y bokeh.

#1 used like lots of tape, black craft paper, and my star cutter.
and it was like anal trying to find a pair of scissors in the house.
here's what my bokeh turned out to look like:

this is sorta like my prototype. so ya, shall try to make more improvements to it. i shall name it... grace#1 since she like intro-ed it to me mmmmm... lol

#2 when combined with my 50mm lens. yeap. lots of tape.


#3 with reference to the youtube video grace showed me, i tried taking some shots of the scenery stuff outside my window. this was with a lower shutter speed.


and the guy in the video seriously wasn't joking about the shutter speed. this photo below was taken at a longer shutter of 3 secs. had like a hard time trying not to move at all...
had to use the self timer to reduce movement to the camera as i didn't use a tripod...

shall try it out at like other locations. cause this is all i could get at my place... ;A;

and i guess i should book my bus tickets soon, once i confirm with shiro again. =3
