When I first opened this image, I thought "Wow, how'd he get such incredible depth of field?". Thanks for the explanation. You're hard work paid off - nice shot(s). - Steve (PFC2001)

Paul, thanks for the info...and I like how you used "snow" here along with shadow effects between the candle figures. Nice composition for "soldiers". MFC

Paul, could you explain how you acheived the zoned focus here? It's a new term to me although I think I can gather what it means from examining your photo. Thanks!

Very effective composition! The colors are quite striking against the stark white background, and all is enhanced by your choice of frame. Helen
