Funny stated the way it was I thought it was simple Trolling....
Rules are to be broken. They are guidelines at best. Taking shots using rules of thirds doesn't make you a great shooter, it just makes you a sheep.
Just bought my first DSLR & I appreciate this thread, some cool pointers
Will take them on board this weekend
Playing about with family pet, Bullseye the rabbitDon't forget to post your results here.
Nice work, only just stumbled across this. Already knew about the 3rd's rule, but didn't know about having things in the background and foreground to give pictures depth - useful thanks!
Just noticed none of the photos are showing on here.
That's because i hosted them with Photobucket and now demands money.
I will have to rehost them elsewhere and update this thread sometime soon.
Forgot about this, will do it on my next days off.Would love it if the photographs were made available again.
Was gutting to read the explanations but not have the photos to go with it.

In the meantime, feel free to ask questions in this section of the forum. Plenty of people willing to help if they can.
There is always a critical area of sharpness in any picture, but then around this is an area that it still perceived as acceptably sharp, this is what called the depth of field (DOF). DOF is controlled by subject distance, aperture, focal length, and as an indirect result the sensor size.Ok... here’s just a quick one... lol....
So like I’m sure pretty much most new people interested in photography... the subject of Bokeh, blurring parts of an image etc is a hot topic lol.
I have a Nikon 3400 dslr with the 18-55mm kit lense, but am also awaiting delivery of a 50mm prime lense, which will allow F1.8, to better help with Bokeh, background blur etc.
One thing i can’t quite grasp is....
I have seen pictures where it’s the opposite.. front/mid is blurred but background is in focus.
How is this achieved? Like you can actually choose what’s blurred? Or I suppose rather what’s in focus.
With the lcd liveview screen on my Nikon... there’s a moveable square, I can move this around with the d-pad. So is it a case of just putting that on the part I want in focus?
Not to make a new topic, how to deal with "Not enough RAM" problem while using Photoshop? Got 16gb, still in trouble
