Welcome to Day 38 :) I know we were going to do a moon shots day but I got to thinking how interesting is that really going to be ? So I thought we'd make it about *Shallow Depth of Field* and whoever wants to can post the moon as well. Shallow Depth of Field means only a small part of the photo is in focus and the rest is blurry .. making some lovely Bokeh.
Here are a few examples to get us started.
Don't forget if you do post a moon photo... also post your settings.

Depth of field can make or break a photo. I love to apply it on flowers. Hope to understand and apply in my photos more often.

f/3.5 flower was perfectly flat,& thin so all was in focus


f/5.6 center of flower was focus point


f/5 single flower was focus point


f/4 eyes were focus point


f/3.5 frog focus point, but standing back 20 feet


f/4.8 far away shot, distance between bird and foliage 20 feet


one of my favorites. f/11 tried to get whole lizard in focus but failed, about 18 feet away


f/5.6 from abut 30 feet away


f/5.6 from 9 feet away

oh my..... what beautiful pictures already! Cannot wait to try this & I'll definately get a shot of the moon, as long as there are no clouds - just wish I could figure out how to get the clouds or the hills or something in with the picture of the moon, (guess I'll figure that one out eventually....) :D Happy shooting everyone
