Photography: Ring
Photography: Ring
I used a standard hand-held digital camera and placed a ring on a bed.
By zooming in and focussing on the furtherest distance of the ring, it establishes the illusion I was looking for; a change in the depth of field.
"Depth of field refers to the range of distance that appears acceptably sharp. It varies depending on camera type, aperture and focusing distance, although print size and viewing distance can also influence our perception of depth of field." by http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/depth-of-field.htm
I choose to digitally alter the colour of the ring and use a soft grayscale which creates a calming look a ring that is linked tightly in chain. Therefore, fading the chain on top pushes your eyes to the concentrated area of the ring.
