Looking at a series of photographs from Robin Gillanders I took note of the depth of field used and compare with the depth of field I have used in assignment 5.
For my assignment 5, I use a very shallow depth of field, most images are f1.4, contrast to images from Robin Gillanders example here – https://www.robingillanders.com/photo_11085363.html#photos_id=11056607
The depth of field is shallow but not as pronounced, more natural. Of course, the choice was mine to use such a shallow depth of field for my submission and I stand by that choice as I wanted to produce a profound feeling of reduced understanding and clarity in the viewer as a core component of the theme. There is something very natural about these images though. Worth investigating in the future as I feel my use of aperture is limited; shallow or deep, <= 2.2 or >= 7.1
Great light and depth of field here also – https://www.robingillanders.com/photo_11085363.html#photos_id=11085358
