Focus

In this photo, it is clear that depth of field and focus was taken into consideration. I wanted the photo to focus on the Baldock’s nature/countryside appeal, and so I shot various close-ups of plants and leaves within the woodland area of Baldock. The viewer will first see the the close-up detail of the leaves, then the footpath that is out of focus in the background which would appeal to people who enjoy walking as the pathway looks pleasant on a sunny day.

This is another photo from the shoot that shows evidence of depth of field. I wanted to capture the beautiful greenery in the woodland area along with the spots of colours from the flowers that sprout from the bushes. The pink flower in the photo is the focal point whilst the background is blurred. The bright green colours in this photo help contrast against the pink flower and help create a summery atmosphere.
