TASK 3 - Narrow Depth of Field

Pig In Uttoxeter 

I went to Uttoxeter on 11th October arriving on the outskirts just before 5.30 pm armed with Canon 450d camera with 28-70mm lens, battery fully charged and 2gb memory card.   The sun was still out but starting to go down.   My first stop was at the roundabout just before Uttoxter where two huge vocal pigs live, pinky brown in colour with hazel coloured eyes.   I had intended to stop many times before but never had.  They were behind a metal fence with equal squares of about 2 x 2 which the lens of my camera just about fitted against to get a clear shot without the bars.   I took pictures trying wide depth of field so as to include the bars of the fence, the pig and some of the background which included a shed.  I also tried narrow depth of field whereby i have the bars in focus and the snout of a pig.  I did get a slightly better shot than this but managed to ruin the file by renaming it incorrectly and it is now unusable!   Another lesson learnt.   This final picture though shows narrow depth of field with the background completely out of focus and the foreground in focus.
