Shooting in the office…
…with very shallow depth of field.
I’ll be quick :) Couple of days ago I had an idea of taking random pictures in the office. And not of the people, but rather of different subjects (and believe me, we’ve got a lot of them around our ‘playground’ :). And you know that rule of 48 hours, which says, that if you’ve got a new idea of doing something, you got to be doing start doing it within 48 hours, otherwise it will never be realized. I believe it’s very true, though can’t really boast of following that rule. I did it this time, but it is rather an exception :)
Well, nothing revolutionary here, really. But I think it came up as a nice mash-up (can I call it a mash-up??). Ok, I shut up.
P.S. Ooooops. As Nathan just pointed out to me, the first picture actually belongs to him :) He was playing a bit with my camera too. And I was so sure this shot was mine… :)

Gotta love shallow depths of field :)
Which lens did you use for these?
They’d make good stock photos. You should sell them to Simon for use on the Pod1 website when we finally redesign it…

yeah, simple but effective :)
I was using a prime 50 mm f/1.8 lens.
and mmmm… not sure if Simon goes for that. I’d love to be expensive :)

Great pics Oleg. Very imporessive. Paul that’s a great idea. Let’s use them !

Thanks Simon :) Yeah, we probably could find the way to use them ;)
