Hello once again!

NOZ asked me to open the theme for this month. NOZ was very specific; a reprise of 9_Destiny's June 2012 theme, Depth of field
A lot has changed in mobile photograpy in 3 years, so we look forward to see what you are capable of.

This time introduction will be also short. Theme of this month is: Depth of Field. Theme is wide, so no one who really wants to be part of the competition, shouldn�t have problems with participate.

How to aim Deepth of Field? Quite easy. Set focus on the object you want to capture leaving for it some space to get blurry background. You don�t need to have manual focus in your camera. Even the most simple phones are avaible to capture great DOF.

Some inspirations from: Uncle Google

And here are some great examples from our Esato�s community:

Yeah, blurry background would refer to bokeh but bokeh can be in front of your subject as well. DoF (Depth of Field) is actually the disctance between the nearest and farthest bit of photo that is sharp. I love bokeh so I must contribute this month.

Thanks to hihihans helping me get logged back into ESATO, I may just have the chance to submit an entry this month...

ESATO is acting strange whenever I want to login and forget my password (when I'm on my phone etc).
I never get my password reset mail when I fill out the forgot password fields.

Nice shot, it takes skill to get that close to insects especially with a phone.

Posted by hihihans
Yes, I know, boring flowers but with depth of the field where they are.

The tool for photo rotation in here seems to be broken so you'll have to tilt your head.
