Rowena at sunrise this morning. There was a lot wind. I had difficulty balancing the exposure time to stop any motion, with a small enough aperture to maintain full DOF. I dialed up the ISO a few times, but hate to go too high. For this image, I actually thought I might want a shallow DOF, but when processing it, I wish I had available a few shot at f/16 to choose from. I think I would like to see the background a bit sharper.

Canon 350D
24-70mm @ 24mm
f/5.6, 1/200
ISO 100

Great concept. The light on the flowers is right on and I like the perspective of the river going into the distance. Certainly something to keep trying for with more optimal conditions.

Tim,

I really like your choice in DOF for this, your title is very fitting!

Best regards,
