Shallow Depth of Field

A well known photo technique: Go close to the subject and open your diaphragm to f/4-f/5. The more open your diaphragm  the less the depth of field will be. You could choose to have only a part of your subject sharp, in which case you open the diaphragm to f/2.8 or lower if your lens allows.

2 examples:


Both pictures are for sale in my shop:  http://keesvanderhave.werkaandemuur.nl/                          

We now have an app for iphone and ipad. You will find it in the applestore as "werk aan de muur"
You can then take the number of the photo you choose, enter it in the app, take a picture of the wall in need of decoration, and you will see if my picture (or any other with a "work on the wall" number) will fit your interior. Fun to try!

Shortly international orders will be accepted.
