Does anyone else get annoyed at the use of DOF in images were it shouldn't be? To me, DOF tends to imply (as a photographer) that I didn't get the focus right. Don't get me wrong, in some circumstances I want that effect, but when half the object of interest is blurred due to DOF, it still feels wrong. I feel that while it can be a useful tool, it is necessary to use it a lot more sparingly and carefully. (My opinion and thanks for letting me rant!) Your turn...
Pass no temptation lightly by, for one never knows when it may pass again!
