"In photography, the depth of field refers to the distance between the closest and most distant objects that are both in focus in an image. A shallow depth of field will only focus on a narrow range of items, and everything else will be blurry. Photos with greater depth of field will have more things in focus and very little will be blurred. The cables on these socks were a fun excuse to experiment with depth of field while photographing them." - Lauren Rad
