What do you mean the diaphragm? What is that?

I meant this and I figured out how to get that cool blur in the background.

You mean bokeh?

I didn't know it was called bokeh

I thought it was just aperture settings that did that. Like setting it to 2.0 will blur the background, but upping the F setting to maximum will make everything in focus, like Infinity focus. You can also fake it in Photoshop, by creating a 2nd layer, and blurring the picture, and erasing everything that you don't want blurred. By showing both layers, it will appear to look like a low aperture shot.
