Yeah, the blurring around the corner of your eyebrow. More
Depth Of Field (done with a smaller aperture opening - i.e.
larger f-number) will cause all of your features to be in
focus at once... if that's what you want.
Now you know the distortion you get when a dog stuffs his
nose into the lens of a camera to sniff it? The dog's nose
seems disproportionately large. You can create the opposite
effect by moving back from a subject and using a telephoto
lens to keep the frame full. This is often done in portraits
to make a person's nose seem smaller. The effect is to
flatten out features. You can use that technique, if
that's what you want as well.
I stress the "if"'s because I don't want to steal your
objective in creating that image from you. The image should
be what you want it to be, not what I want it to be, so
these are just suggestions.
