Depth of field

http://www.amateurphotographer.co.uk/how-to/tech-explained/536453/depth-of-field-explained

This website explained to me how to use depth of field and what it is. It is now clear what it is and how to use it.


In this picture by Annie Leibovitz ;Life Through A Lens the main focus point in the picture is of Annie.Annie is a sharp figure where as everything else around her is blurred and out of focus. By doing this it takes all the attention to Annie as she stands out the most. It makes me as a viewer see that first and that is what she wants us to see first because it stands out. When everything else being out of focus it draws all your attention
to what is in focus. It is almost like her past has all been blurred out in the picture as the picture is blurred.
