Uhmmm....yeah don't know if this really belongs here or not. Didn't really get the description very well for this weeks challenge. Anyway if not, ignore it. :?
Anyway here is a pic of one of my favorite transformer toys, Grimlock. Really wanted a deep dof or something like that for the photo. This was taken a few weeks back, but I edited it a bit. Let me know what you all think. |

I prefer the second. How did you do it? The dof seems shallow to me. What settings did you use?
Oh, it fits the challenge because you had in aperture priority, right? ![]() |

F4.5 means you had the lens almost wide open. This does not yield good depth of field in most cases. To improve depth of field you need to stop down to f16 or better.
I like your photo and your artistic rendering. I don't think the latter shows depth of field at all since most of the detail has been filtered out. However, blown up, that would make a nice wall hanging. Cal Rasmussen |

very nice
![]() i like the shallow DOF nice car too ![]() the second one shows the DOF, because the lines are strong and sharp in the dof, and weaker and blurry out of the DOF! Vito |
