The effect of aperture on DOF (depth-of-field) is beautiful. A wider aperture results in a narrow or shallow DOF with the plain of focus distinct from the background (for details check out our previous article on aperture). And have you realized how much the photographers love shallow dof and mesmerizing bokeh effect. The dreamy effect, selective focus and beautifully blurred backgrounds just look amazing. Here are twenty amazing photographs with a beautiful DOF effect. Take your pick and if you like, share your own by uploading a picture through the comments section.
