Definition Of Depth

Dictionary definition: the distance from the top or surface to the bottom of something.

Bottomless, continuous, long, ongoing

In this photo, depth is shown by focussing on the part that's nearest to us, and blurring what's furthest away to show how far away it is. I like this picture because it almost seems 3D because of the depth of the photograph.

In this picture, it is not the nearest object that is being focussed on, however in this case it still work because we can see from the wire that the clear, green bulb is behind the blurred blue one at the front. If the wire wasnt there the green bulb would look like it was in front of the blue one. 

 No part of this photo is blurred like the others, however we can see the depth due to the size of the fence getting smaller and smaller. From this we can see it continues into the distance. 

The forground in this photo is shown clearly while the background is blurred, to show that the trees are far away, but the leaves on the ground are right in front of the lens.


My definition of depth: The distance between two different objects or areas
