Homework #4: Due October 3rd

Shallow Depth of Field – In Photoshop

Take an image that you have shot with the DSLR cameras during lab time and create a shallow depth of field effect in Photoshop using the blur tool. This image should also feature foreground/background elements, use of the rule of thirds and have elements that create depth (use single point perspective to create depth). Follow the steps in the tutorial below. Post a jpg of your “in-camera” and “digital” shallow depth of field shot each to your website.
