Does shallow DOF work here?

Posted: Mon Feb 13, 2006 10:08 amPosted: Mon Feb 13, 2006 10:14 amShallow DOF works for me here, a nice shot and I can't see any artifacts to indicate it was shot through glass. This is another one of those zoo shots that plays on your heart strings.. there is such a latent intelligence and sadness for me in this shot, I'm not sure if that was your intention but that's how it comes across to me. Well done.

I think the hand may be lost otherwise

Posted: Mon Feb 13, 2006 12:37 pmThanks Craig and Steve. I intended that the image be somewhat emotive and shooting at f/2 (I think) on my 135 f/2, I think it works.
Here is a shot of a female gorilla, again taken through glass with very low light with shallow DOF.
Not as sharp as I would like.

Posted: Mon Feb 13, 2006 1:37 pmFor me the first shot is a little too shallow in dof... would like to at least have his front hand fully in focus, including the wrist... but also possibly the other hand as well. Otherwise I quite like the composition.
