I have been trying to get DOF on a macro (see previous post) and have been having a little bit of a problem with it. For some reason its not clicking at all, so I decided to try to get DOF on a normal shot before I try again.

I stuck my head out of my little boys bedroom window and took a few pics from out there. I managed to get 2 photographs ..
one with DOF in front of the subject:

one with DOF behind the subject:

I know they are boring pics .. but at least I managed to get that DOF thing lolol

Stumble it!

Man I just cant seem to get this at all. I wanted to take a macro shot of a mobile phone for GoSnap and I wanted it to be the number 5 in focus and the rest of the numbers blurred.

I was given some great advice, and have tried to follow it but its just not clicking at all.

Heres the best of the few (ok loads) that I took trying to get it right!

Mobile 1: almost there .. need a bit more blurriness on the other numbers tho:

Mobile 2: now if I could get the 5 like the 8 and the rest of the numbers like the 5 I would be happy (well happier lol)

Remote: Copied Johns remote idea, to see if I could get it on there. I focused on the menu button and its kinda got it hasnt it ? .. its not quite just the menu button, its the full menu ring .. but i’m getting there lolol

ps: apologies for the mankiness of my remote :EmbarrassedSmilieHere:

Stumble it!
