100 Professional Depth of Field Photos
Creating a professional depth of field (DOF) effect in your photos is a quite difficult task and requires some practice and the right equipment. The challenge in DOF photography is managing to let the sharpness gradually decrease on each side of the main subject.
When the art is mastered however, some pretty amazing results can be achieved… In this post we present you 100 fantastic results of this technique of photography.

( 2 years and 5 days ago )Its a really really beautiful collection of pictures.
Awesome!
( 2 years and 4 days ago )Not to sound like a downer, but achieving shallow DOF is actually pretty easy, and is accomplished by using a large aperture (~<4). Actually, it requires no effort, and cannot (legitimately) be done in post processing.
( 1 year and 358 days ago )Its really very nice photo collection…. i like to use for my presentation also….
Keep it up….

This is not an effect done with software.
( 1 year and 229 days ago )You can create this with using a large aperture (e.g. 1.4 – 2.8), long focal lengths and/or going very near to the subject (e.g. with a macro lens).
These factors (also in combination) have an effect on the depth of field.
Not to forget the sensor size. With a DSLR sensor you can get shallower DOF than with a small size compact camera sensor.
brilliant collection of amazing photographs, thank you for sharing them
( 1 year and 188 days ago )Nice, but there isn’t any information as to the settings, or any other details, that can help others learn how to achieve these types of shots…The blog is nice, the photos are nice, but it would be even nicer if you offer tips if you’re going to take the time to post, blog, etc… just my humble opinion! Great work, by the way!
( 1 year and 85 days ago )Great images! thanks for sharing
( 1 year and 85 days ago )brilliant images
( 1 year and 85 days ago )its very nice snaps i realyy appriciateable very good work done 1 tip that i know to achieve DOF is as you increase focal length you are minimizing the depth of field and also maintain a shuttewr speed in the range of 100 to 160 and use more aperture but keep in mind that aperture should not disturb the quality of picture and it should show good details in it thanx
( 1 year and 61 days ago )Nice photos. Terrible titles…
( 1 year and 10 days ago )[...] I try to use some of these techniques in all of my photos. I have discovered that I like taking depth of field photos most. Before this class, I had always wondered how to make certain subjects in my photos [...]
( 330 days ago )just WONDERFULLLLLL……………….
( 308 days ago )love these shot very cool…. couple of my shots in there too, thanks for the compliment >blush<
this inspires me to take some more shallow dof…. which, i suppose is the idea…
…right to work…
