Depth of Field

We have all seen stunning photos that have used depth of field to create amazing images, but wondered how to take these photographs ourselves.

Basically when we are talking about depth of field we are referring to the zone in a photograph that is in sharp focus and the zones of the photograph that are out of focus. Every photograph will contain an area in front of and behind the subject that will be in focus. By controlling the depth of field you are controlling how much of the surroundings will be in focus.  For more information go to www.dftours.com.au/photography-lessons-and-tips/depth-of-field-a-beginning
