Depth of field is the range of distance that is in focus. Using depth of field will help keep the attention on the subject by either using a shallow or deep depth of field. A shallower depth of field will make the background blurry and is useful when trying to isolate a subject. A deeper depth of field is more for taking pictures of scenery because more of the picture is in focus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pictures taken from further away had a deeper DOF and the subject became less isolated. The pictures taken close to the flowers had a shallower DOF and the subject was more isolated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
