Another way that photos can be classified and identified is by their depth of field and whether it is shallow or deep. Usually shallow depth of field photos are more common and have a singular subject with a blurred background, though they can have a blurred foreground with the subject in the background.

Deep depth of field photos include everything in focus whether that be close, medium, or far. The photos above were taken in on Antelope Island, the photos of the bison I am particularly proud of. Oddly enough I don’t prefer one over the other, considering they both have their advantages and disadvantages. Deep depth of field photo’s can be great for large landscapes whereas shallow depth of field photos can emphasize a singular subject.
