Great picture Bob, but the aperture is f/11.


He said he wants a wide aperture, "open up those apertures"


Elmo, what do you mean by wide DOF?


I'm confused too!

Rich, Thanks. I read all of that as well, But Elmo ended his assignment with " Let's see that bokeh", So...... there is more than one way to achieve bokeh, even at F11. Hopefully I understood his assignment correctly.--If not, I am sure he will clarify []

I'm SOOOO confused! [:S]

I was looking thru my photos and I have some with great bokeh with my macro at f/8 and f/11 but figured it didn't qualify. I think I'll break out the 35mm this weekend!

Hmm, it seems the "circle of confusion" is growing. [:P]


But I'm going to assume (based upon Elmo's pic example) the contest is about a thin DOF.


Bob....great HB capture....I was going to enter one of my thin DOF HB pix, but now I'm reconsidering.


Elmo....the masses need some clarification; do you mean thin or forever DOF?


Good luck everybody

Absolutely agree Bob!


You see Bob.., I wanted this clarified, because I don't have anything that good! [:P]

I'll jump in: Since we can only submit once I hate being first but here goes: If I understand the assignment: Thin DoF, wide open aperture, not a typical pet, tree, or portrait:

ARRGGHHHHH....


Maybe I should just give up and go bury my head in the sand and call it a day.


Please submit photos with a thin depth of field, for those that have submitted, please feel free to resubmit. Anything goes as long as it

Since I use my camera for work I get a little burnt out so I don't pick it up as much as I used to when I'm home. I posted this shot awhile back for people to see but it has a thin DOF and its of an interesting and colorful little subject.
