Depth of Field, say your f stop is 2.8 and you focus on a subject ten metres away anything in the background would be blurred and out of focus ( shallow DOF) if you took the same shot with say f8 the subject plus the background would be both sharp and in focus, shallow DOF is used in portraits to give more emphasis to the subject

see here

That should be a sticky

Nice, I like the perspective of the first one. There's a guy somewhere that does long night exposures of beaches and they are utterly amazing

Bit big to fit on the screen!

I dunno about the first one. The second one's really lacking in contrast. you should do something like this with it: http://wapoc.com/crap/rendog1.jpg

Whatever's off to the left looks a bit more interesting so I probably would have left out that taller building on the right and included some of that. It's perfectly alright though

Cheers! I'm just getting back into taking pics after ages of hardly taking any, so it's good to get some feedback...

That first one makes me think 'hippos in the mist'.

I like that photo. The only criticism I'd make of it is that the trees in the centre are a bit overexposed: it's too bad you couldn't have gotten a little more detail in that part of the pic.

Very nice. Reminds me a bit of Jim Cooke's 'Engineerum' B&W photos.

These are all ace. The second is maybe very slightly misaligned which might detract from it a little. The third, with the cross, is fantastic. Did you set up the cross?

Here's two of mine I took today:

Cheers Mauvais. No the cross was there already, not sure why though as ive been before and its not been.

Like the one of the bird on the tyres, its a good shot

I was in chester 2 weeks ago just taking random shots of the crowds, later when looking at my images noticed these people, bit annoyed about the foot in the bottom left but can't crop it out without slicing into the guy
