Composition Trick: Depth of Field

Changing your Depth of Field can give your photo an entirely different feeling. I encourage you to play around with it on your own cameras.

Please create a blog post explaining to me what Depth of Field is in your own words, and how you might use it in your own photography. LABEL IT DEPTH OF FIELD and TRICKS

Include example images of high and low depth of fields, spend some time looking for these. It's very easy to just type "high depth of field" into google and take the first one that pops up, but I'm hoping you'll really explore the many ways in which this can be used and choose a photo that fits your own style.


Quick Refresher:
Depth of field is the amount of distance between the nearest and farthest objects that appear in acceptably sharp focus in a photograph.

A large depth of field means that a large area both in front and behind your main subject will appear sharp. A shallow depth of field implies that anything other than your main focus point will appear blurred. A smaller f-stop (F2) will create a shallow depth of field. A larger f-stop (F11) will create a greater depth of field
