Best wrong word EVER EVER EVER in photography Bokeh. A word made up in 1998. In japanese the word bo ke basicaly means Crazy or mentally impared or the more literal translation soft mentally. the author thought it meant soft. I feel like I should throw up every time I see it and my japanese wife laughs when ever she hears it. Now the japanese have created a new word that sounds like Boke but isn't boke. So basically a mis translation created an english word that then created a Japanese word that means what we mis translated the word Boke to mean. WOW. And there is a spoken difference between the words that most westerners will never be able to notice.
Aho Boke for sure.

The true problem with the art world has been the invention and very successful marketing of the Epson large format inkjet printer. Inkjet prints have replaced other forms art like drawings, paintings, etc. Why buy a $22,500 1960’s vintage print when one can make do with a $295 print from an Epson 7800?On Sep 1, 2013, at 3:43 PM, visfxsup wrote:Unfortunately most collector's collect so the can say the have the only one or I have the cool one.
