Hi, Welcome to CS . . .

Believe that you are looking at Bokeh (blur background), pls read up on Aperture mode.
- Wider aperture (the smaller the number will be the widest in your lens)
- Closer to your subject that you are shooting
- you should able to get a 'blur' background (Bokeh)

Hope it helps . . .
