DOF - f/2.8 - Shallow depth of field

Highlands County, Florida

This image shows what is known as shallow depth of field.

The larger the aperture (smaller "f" number) the shallower the focus.

When using a large "f" stop, the aperture closes down, when using a small "f" stop, the aperture opens wide.

Focused on the front bottle writing.
