Smarties Candy, originally uploaded by Scott O. Smith.
For my first post to this photo blog I wanted to show one of the first photos taken with my DSLR. One of the main reasons for purchasing a DSLR was for the ability to use the Depth of Field technique. This technique allows the photographer to draw the viewer to certain areas of the photograph. In this photo, I wanted to draw attention to the candy in the center (with the “S”).
I set my camera focus point to the center and focused on the candy in the middle making sure to use the largest aperture and longest focal length.
Canon XTi, Canon EF-S18-55 f/3.5 - 5.6 lens, 1/15 second, f/5.6, ISO 200
