EXERCISE #4
Sometimes it is nice to have the background out of focus. For instance, take a picture of a flower blossom that stands high enough off the ground so that you can see both the blossom and a background scene when you look through the camera. Take the picture about two feet from the blossom. For this exercise set the lens opening at f/2.8 and the shutter speed at 250 (or as fast a shutter speed as your camera will allow). Set your focus for the exact distance between the flower and your camera. Measure the distance.
(Put your example here.)
Result: The flower blossom will be sharp but the background will be fuzzy, making the blossom stand out.
