An article from our Professional Imagemaker archive
Depth of Field
“Knowledge of the means of extending, restricting or just achieving adequate depth of field is a primary craft skill.

Photo Quote: Once the amateur's naive approach and humble willingness to learn fades away, the creative spirit of good photography dies with it. Every professional should remain always in his heart an amateur. - Alfred Eisenstaedt
