The Lens Blur tool mimics the depth of field and bokeh you can get with professional SLR lenses, and gives you a realistic effect in the editing process. Bokeh is a term used to describe the shapes that objects take on when they're not in focus. You'll find Lens Blur in the Edit section of our Photo Editor.

Step 1: Open your image in the Photo Editor.
Step 2: Select the Edit section from the left-hand menu. Then, select Lens Blur.
Step 3: Adjust Blur Amount, this determines how strong the blur effect is on your image.
Step 4: Adjust Bokeh Intensity, this determines how strong the bokeh effect is on your image.
Step 5: Adjust Blade Curvature, this adjusts the sharpness of the edges of the bokeh effect. Low blade curvature creates harder lines, high curvature softens the bokeh to be more circular.
