Great tutorial! I was trying to figure out how to create a gradual blur on the background of one of my photos, and you explained everything so well, as always. The only thing that was different for me was that once I had created the blur I did not have to disable the mask. Not sure why, but it did not hide the blur for me. Anyhow, I was able to achieve my objective very nicely.

Hello! First off, thank you so much for this video! I just have a problem around 9: 10. I'm not able to go back to my original background. When I select Lens Blur, the original background shows up in the preview but will not actually restore to the photo I'm working on. If you could help me, I would be so grateful!

Fantastic - informative, explanatory, step-by-step. Many years ago I came across the statement, Expect ingratitude, which I've never understood why that seems too often to be the case. So, from just one person in the other corner, let me express my sincere gratitude for your most excellent training videos. Thank you!

I've followed along with your directions perfectly and had great results. For some reason it isn't working with Photoshop 2021. When I go into lens blur, it won't load the image. I've gave it plenty of time. It will show me the original image if I deselect preview, but that's it. Any ideas?

Just a heads up, any real photographer will look down on you for doing this, most of the time.
And no, no matter what you think, you cannot recreate the true bokeh look by blurring your image. It looks cheap, and refined eyes know it.

I was manually going in and adding the light blur (hexigonal shapes) to my pictures this entire time! I was too lazy to take a further look into what all of the lens blur controls were! facepalm

Very good tutorial! Just one thing! in my opinion the blur is after the subjekt direkt to much! It needs to fade smoother going to 100%!
