Frequently asked

questions

What is the bokeh effect?

The Bokeh effect refers to the soft out-of-focus background you sometimes see in a professional photograph.

How do you create the bokeh effect in your images?

If you were shooting a photograph in real life, you’d need a fast lens at a f/2.8 aperture to create that magical out-of-focus blurring effect.

But if you just want to add the effect after you’ve already taken the picture, you can use Colorcinch’s free Bokeh Effect tool.

Are there any other effects I can add?

Colorcinch has a host of photo editing tools you can use, whether you want to cartoonify yourself, add a special effect, remove backgrounds or change the color of an image. It’s free and straightforward.

What can I do with my edited image?

If you own the copyright, you can do anything with your edited image. Share it on social media.

Sell it as an NFT. Or just use it to create a great profile pic!

What does the word bokeh mean?

Bokeh is the nominalized form of the Japanese word “bokeru”, which means to blur. Bokeh images have blurry backgrounds.
