Work Diary&Progression- Depth

Evaluation:

In today's lesson we were given the task of exploring both wide and narrow depth of fields. To investigate these various depths of field we had to change our camera settings; specifically we had to change the aperture, the lower the aperture the narrower the depth of field, and the higher the aperture the wider the death of field. I investigate this in my images. 


This image is my best photograph of the day. The darker image on the top is the edited one, and the one below is the original image. I believe this is my best image, as depth is shown through the bark on the tree being in focus, whereas the leaves behind are blurred. This shows the leaves are further away than the tree, and creates perspective for the image overall. This photograph represents a narrow depth of field. The bark is rough, exposing the tone and texture further. This image overall represents depth well, the focus point determines the overall depth of the image. 



This image is my worst of the day. The photograph shows a wide depth of field, however it is not a very good example, as in this image no depth is shown,due to the fact you cannot see any objects/buildings in the background, which are smaller than the bigger building in focus. Consequently, it doesn't specifically show depth as you have no other objects in the image to compare the larger one too. If i was to reshoot this image again i would photograph another building with a smaller one behind, this would the create a perspective for the viewer and the depth would be evident, as a clear size difference in the buildings would highlight this.

  1. Good analysis of Depth... what was the aperture setting, how does this impact on depth of field...?
