well actually it would be shallow depth of field if the background was 100m away and blurry. if the challenge was a close up with shallow depth of field - i'd think they would have labled it a macro challenge...

the idea is to use a blurred background to make your subject pop off the page - that can be done at 10mm away or 100m away - the result should be a blurred background separating your subject from it to be a tight fit in this challenge.

i'm in this challenge and i'm a little annoyed ... seems to be a lot of shots that aren't shallow dof ... like if the background is 100 metres away and it's blurry, it's good enough.

Doing OK for an f/5.6 shot.

I was gonna shoot my daughter "snorkeling" in low-cut grass, but it's cold and I'm allergic to sub-5 scores. ;-)

LOL - and now a few words from a man who is outstanding in his field:
"Hi. I'm out standing in my field"

btw, mine's an f/5.6 too
