This photograph was taken in Ireland in my nanny and granddads back garden, the flower is a Fritillaria meleagris. I took the photo with the shutter speed at 1/250 which means it gave it great depth of field so the image is focusing on the flower and blurring the background. (5 years and 1638 days ago)

Pretty, just a little hint, the shutter speed has nothing to do with the depth of field. That is down to the appareture. The more open the lens is (smaller number) the more shallow the depth of field.
