Today over on The Pioneer Woman’s photography page she has a Short Depth of Field assignment.

Now, I’m not technical when it comes to photos AT ALL. Something I’m trying to learn more about, but how I take it is this: Short depth of field is a close up with a very defined focus for the photo. Not that I made it sounds any less confusing … but thats how I understand it in my head. Without all the technical terms. So I entered her flickr photo-pool and then compiled some of my favorites through the last couple years for this slideshow.

There are so many people who are way better skilled at this than I am, the photos stuff and who understand the technical side of things and when the two marry – it’s like magic. Really … it totally is. But I just like to take photos, the ones that tell my story.
