Depth of Field


Shifting the focal point made my image less interesting in my opinion. When the focus was on my stair railings I felt as though the photo lost the art aspect. The photo seemed to be more of a snapshot even though it was not. When the focus was on my cat the photo turned out better with more of a meaning. I think it changes how the viewer perceives the photo by lowering the importance of them when the focus is changed. The innocence that the cat is showing is taken out of the picture when the stairs are in focus. The viewer is less drawn to the subject.

  1. I really like your pictures! Preferably the one where your cat is in focus, it pops out right out at you, really catches the eye. The one where the stairs are in focus is nice too but it doesn't catch my eye as much as the other.

  2. I love your pictures and how they are so simple but look so clear and sharp! I agree with you that the focus on the stairs gave your picture more a distraction than making it look better.
