GREENGRASS Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Phasianus colchicus. Original size. Have had to work on this one as the sun was the wrong side of him for the shot. Regards GG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyb Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 How come the background is all blured? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 It's called depth of field Gary ;-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyb Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 I thought it was a dirty lens! Dont own a posh camera myself, and probably never will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchieboy Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 How come the background is all blured? It sometimes helps to throw the background out of focus to highlight the main point of interest. This is often done intentionally by using as wide an apateur as possible.

JonnyR Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 Took this a while back. Light was coming in through a high window and throwing a beam across this old wooden chair. I know it is not 'sporting' but I liked it. cheers, Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Light was coming in through a high window and throwing a beam across this old wooden chair. I know it is not 'sporting' but I liked it. I like it Jon maybe a little higher with the camera. Out of interest what was F number and lens used. Regards GG Edited September 5, 2010 by GREENGRASS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love you to post the tweaked version as per PM. I have no idea on the f stop etc. I used a Leica D-Lux, which I am sure you know is a bit of a point and click job, albeit a fairly pricey one! cheers, Jon.
