Depth
First Call: Autumn Leaves — Cheryl
I chose Depth as this week’s Call, because I’m desperately trying to find some in my work. When you know you can spend a mere five minutes underwater, though, you don’t put on the diving suit, strap on the air tank and head down 30 meters.
I know it’s a frustration I’ve voiced previously (as has Jessica), but it’s a situation that comes and goes. Unfortunately, this time around, it arrived back in about May, and it doesn’t look to be going anywhere anytime soon.
Depth: have I captured any with this photo? I think so, because (ironically) the depth of field is so shallow. I have other shots of this gorgeous maple tree shining in the afternoon sun with a deeper focus, but because I can’t really see where the background ends in this shot, I feel like it goes on forever.
What do you think? Am I just imagining it?
I was just noticing today how many of our leaves are starting to turn and then I realized that it IS October. It does look like you are a bit further on though…
Yes, 30 meters — I’d love to go there but I have to be happy with the surface shot I usually get. At least since it seems to me that depth is a function of focus (or time to focus) and my adult ADD is not helping in that matter. (Adult ADD or just modern life?)
