<\/p>\nUse a combination of small apertures and wide lens to take a number of photographs
\nexploring deep depth of field. Because of the small apertures you\u2019ll be working with
\nslow shutter speeds and may need to use a tripod or rest the camera on a stable
\nsurface to prevent \u2018camera shake\u2019 at low ISOs. Add one or two unedited sequences,
\ntogether with relevant shooting data and an indication of your selects, to your
\nlearning log.<\/p>\n
Achieving deep depth of field might appear easy compared to the difficulties of
\nmanaging shallow depth of field. We\u2019re surrounded by images made with devices
\nrather than cameras whose short focal lengths and small sensors make it hard
\nto achieve anything other than deep depth of field. The trick is to include close
\nforeground elements in focus for an effective deep depth of field image. Foreground
\ndetail also helps to balance the frame, which can easily appear empty in wide shots,
\nespecially in the lower half. When successful, a close viewpoint together with the
\ndynamic perspective of a wide-angle lens gives the viewer the feeling that they\u2019re
\nalmost inside the scene.<\/p>\n
