Depth of Field

Yes, it is a field, a field of flax actually. They have a delicate blue colour.

So what is the depth bit about? In photography we always have to consider that things that are too close won't be in focus and likewise things too far away might not be in focus either. This is controlled by the aperture of the lens. In this particular case the field has some rolling hills which has emphasized the Depth of Field effect.

I don't know why but this is the only pic that isn't showing up. I read what you had to say about it and was looking forward to seeing the field of flax.
