Wide Aperature Pine

pine

EOS 5D, 70-200mm f/2.8, 1/1000, ISO 400

The other day I was playing around with my new 70-200mm f/2.8 lens, attempting to get some forsythia shots.  Forsythia shots were a bust, but I did capture this image of a pine tree branch, which was next to the forsythia.  While not one I’d put in my favorites folder, I do like wide aperature photographs.  I like how only a select area is sharp, while the rest is a soft blur. 

To achieve the selected focus and blurred background, I chose to shoot the image at f/2.8.
