William and Kate
 

This is purportedly one of two official engagement photographs of William and Kate. Since I don't know much about photography and Photoshopping, I'll let you guys discuss the nuances of this photo.

Why does the background look so much fuzzier than the two people? Looks like two pics pasted together.

It's a photographic technique called bokeh, where the objects at the front are in focus but everything behind is out of focus.

Do they do that by making the F stop something under 1.0 ?

Nothing suspicious about that at all. Low F-stop, creating a very short depth of field.

She is very good looking. Way to go William.

He could be the biggest boob in the world, and I'll bet he has 100's of girls like that who would gladly step into her shoes.

Hey! How'd that happen?

Eddie Murphy.... circa mid 80's.

Didn't you read the posts? I think the guys are saying it has something to do with the F stop? ;)

Her father used to be an Airline pilot, thought that was funny
Any lens with a MAX Aperture of 2.8 or less creates this

She is seriously hot. Best looking Briton I've ever seen; she and Elizabeth Hurley. Even better that she's a "girl next door" commoner.

She'll be an epic queen, remembered hundreds of years from now.
