The more I learn to manipulate the camera the more fun I am having. (No...it doesn't beat out fishing!)
Here are two of the same photo, with a different subject in focus.
The focus here being the Leaves and blossom of a birch tree.
This photo has the focus of the pond in the background and the leaves are left a blur.
This opens up a new avenue of photo's for me.
William - If you were fishing, where's the focus on the fish. . .teehee:-) One of the things I've noticed about photography, is when it is on your mind, little else can matter:-)
Bill, that is SO NEAT!!!! And, I have to say I like them both for different reasons.
It's amazing the different looks you can create when you vary your depth of field.
William, It is amazing what a difference a little thing like focus can make! Great post!
Interesting! And as Juli #2 said, I also like them both for different reasons too.
The fish are coming in a couple of weeks. Right now I am working on getting to know the settings of this camera
This was taken at the cabin. I was just goofing around when this thought came to me
Bill...
Depth of field is an important consideration when you take a photograph. I need to write about that one of these days.
Bill,
With a high f-stop and a mid-rnage focus, both the foreground and distance can be in focus also. :)

Great photos Bill. I need to get out with my camera more and practice. thanks for sharing.
I like Steve's #9 comment. In photography to get the best shot you need to compromise. . .Now, if we could only get Washington to do that:-)
This is interesting. My camera isn't good enough to try this, but of course, I may ust need to know how to do this..
