Depth- Image bank

Estimated F-stop F/16.


I like the way that the shallow depth of field is combined with the contrast between the red and the white of the background  in order to draw the viewers the eye to the coke can.  

Estimated F-stop F/13


I like this image because of the way that the sharp lines created by the pencil in the foreground contrast drastically with the more blurred lines of the pencils in the background of the image.  I also like the way that the bright colours in the image contrast with the white background to draw the viewers eye to the pencils.

Estimated F-stop F/11


I like this image because of the way that the planks of wood the make up the bench create a slight converging line which draws the eye towards the red light at the end of the bench and creates a focal point.  The light reflecting off of the bench also draws the eye into the image.    I think that the use of a high F-stop and shallow depth of field gives the image a sense of mystery as the viewer is unaware of what exists outside of the focused area.

Estimated F-stop F/2


I like the way that the low shot of the building with it's wide depth of field creates a crisp image.  The images also appears to be a wide angle shot which helps to immerse the viewer in the image.  The converging lines of the buildings also appeal to me as they also contribute as am method of drawing the viewer into the image.  

Estimate F-stop F/12


This image appeals to me as I like the way in which the bowling balls draw the viewers eye to centre of the image as a result of the low depth of field in the image.  I also feel that the bold colouration of the bowling balls creates an aesthetically pleasing contrast between the more neutral tones on the setting. 

Estimate F-stop F/12


I like the way that the shallow depth of field in the image leads the viewer to focus on the beetle which has been positioned in the centre left third of the image.  The contrast between the yellow and purple of the beetle is also essential in drawing the viewers eye to the beetle as purple (the beetle) and yellow (the flower) as well as blue (the beetle) and orange (the background are complimentary colours.
