Hi guys, i am a newbie at photography so hoping to learn from you guys.
i have seen some pics on the forum (forgot which thread) and it seems people are able to get good bokeh or the blurred effect of the background using kit lens. i am very impressed and wonder how i can achieve this as whenever i zoom in or out using my kit lens 18 - 55mm the aperture may not be the widest (from my understanding it seems a wider aperture is needed to get a shallow depth of field, hence better bokeh?)....
