Shallow Depth of Field – Online Competition 13

The latest round of our just-for-fun weekly competition has been voted on. The brief was to enter an image that showed good use of a shallow depth of field. Surprisingly, the majority submitted nature photographs.

All through the voting period two images kept swapping top position as they raced ahead of the rest of the entries. For the first time in the history of this competition we have joint winners.

Congratulations go to both Paul Burrows for ‘Common Toad’ and to Steve Myall for ‘Poppy’.
