Spring really is upon us now. The garden is colourful and lush and teeming with life.

The setup for this particular photograph was actually very simple. Shot from very low, very close to the ground, with a 50mm lens at f/1.8, which gives you a depth of field only marginally wider than a razor blade.

I use a ‘full-frame’ camera, i.e. frame size is equivalent to 35mm film. I have never used a camera with a small sensor but I do believe that achieving a shallow depth of field is a bit problematic.

Where are you moving to?

hi wolfie, thank you for showing me your collection!! i really really love pictures like this, with crrrrrazy depth of field and bokeh, but i honestly don’t know how to take them, which is a shame, because i would love to add that to my list of things to snap when we move out into the country very beautiful, my friend!!!
