What do you mean by blurred edges?

Edge blur means that the edge of the object in the image is not clear enough, showing a certain degree of fuzzy effect. For example, people can't see the outline of the object clearly and the edge is not sharp enough, which is often caused by the influence of photographic equipment, lens, photometry and other factors.

Relatively speaking, edge blurring is also an aesthetic effect, which can give people a soft, warm and artistic visual experience. In some specific scenes or subject shooting, proper use of edge blur can also improve the visual effect and emotional expression of photos.

Scenes with blurred edges are widely used in portrait photography, landscape photography and still life photography. In portrait photography, the proper use of edge blur can emphasize the characteristics and aesthetic feeling of portraits and make the characters more artistic and emotional. In landscape photography, edge blurring can highlight the vastness and profundity of the landscape and help to establish a stronger sense of space and visual level. In still life photography, the use of edge blur can make the photos softer and warmer, giving people a dreamy feeling.

In a word, the application of edge blur is everywhere, which can not only make photos more beautiful, but also express various emotions and artistic conception, and convey the photographer's mood and thoughts.

Edge blur needs to be realized by special photographic equipment or post-processing software. In terms of photographic equipment, the large aperture lens, telephoto lens and soft lens in SLR cameras can achieve the effect of blurred edges. In the post-processing, we can use the filters of PS, LR, AE and other software to achieve the desired effect.

It should be noted that excessive edge blurring may make photos look too hazy and lose focus and expressiveness. Therefore, when using the edge blur effect, we should pay attention to the degree of grasping and achieve the right effect. At the same time, combined with the theme scene to be shot, closely combined with the expression techniques, to achieve the perfect performance of artistic effects.
