8. DEPTH OF FIELD, 6 IMAGES

SHALLOW Depth of Field:

 Depth of field is very shallow. Therefore they used a large aperture. The photographer is very close to their subject.
 This is also a shallow depth of field, because it is focused on the thing closest to you, the thumb, and not the face. This also had a large aperture because of that. Pretty close to the subject of the picture, but not right next to it.
This isn't the shallowest depth of field you can get, because his face is still pretty visible, just a little softer than his foot, but because the main focus is on his foot, is is a shallow depth of field, and uses a large aperture. Very close to subject (shoe).


LONG DEPTH OF FIELD:

 Sharp background, long depth of field. Small aperture. Big distance.
 Background is really sharp, which means it has a long depth of field. Small aperture, great distance to see all the mountains, probably a wide lens too. Small aperture.

 Pretty sharp background, long depth of field. Small aperture, very far distance.
