• A simple definition of depth of field is how much of the photograph is sharp and how much is blurry.
• In a large depth of field most of the objects in the photograph are in focus.
• In a shallow depth of field only a few of the objects are in focus.
• You can effectively use depth of field to change the look and feel of your photograph.
• There are no hard and fast rules about when to use depth of field.
• As part of your creative process you can decide whether a shallow or large depth of field will enhance the photograph.
