This photograph was taken at my friend’s Japanese restaurant in York. There are different kinds of Japanese style decorations and these two lampshades are one of them. The reason why I took a photograph of these two lampshades was to make a comparison to my last image which shows about depth-of-field. And by taking this photograph I want to show that depth-of-field is not the only way of focusing an object since sometimes we might want to focus on more than one object. For example in this photo, objects we trying to focus might both in the foreground and also in the background. In this case, we need to use a smaller aperture since it allows more of the foreground and background fall within acceptable focus. In other words we can get a sharp image of both objects rather than focusing on one object and making the other object blur. And this is what we called extended depth-of-field.
