Remember that depth of field is a relative factor. The closer you are to the subject, the more DOF you need to get it all in focus.

I also learn as you do. Sometimes you just need a starting point or someone with experience to give their insight. I have a learning disability and just reading books and manuals are of no help. I have taken photos of still objects at the same distance with different settings to try and get a better understanding of things. This does help but because I can not get out and use my camera as often as I would like, I tend to forget things I have learned. I come here and learn so much from people's questions. Especially when there is a photograph so I can see what is right or wrong.

A lot of what inexperienced photographers think of as guesswork is really just a matter of buckling down and learning how the camera works.
Thanks Linda,
Part of my "buckling down" is putting images here and looking for directions as to where to start with my practice. Is that not what the purpose is here? I would not consider my learning haphazard, but with practice comes questions....
