This week's theme was right up my alley - I love shooting wide open or with a shallow DOF. If you're not familiar with Depth of Field, it's what portion of the picture is in focus. So a shallow DOF has a small portion of the picture, typically the foreground, in focus and then the rest of the picture nicely blurred. I love the look of a nice soft background with your target object/person all sharp.
The grey disgusting weather we've been having has left me a little lacking in the inspiration or ability to shoot outside with lovely light. But the week is coming to the end, and I'll be out of town for business for the rest of the photo week (each theme starts on Tuesday), so I needed to pick something today. Still inside, but today Row and I decided to make the Gooey Cinnamon Squares from the Smitten Kitchen Cookbook. I'll try and make them again and write up the recipe/any changes for you guys and take pictures since mine didn't come out very pretty this time. It did give me a great photo opportunity though, with the best part of baking - licking the beater/spoon. Here you go:

I'm definitely starting to do more with photography - getting the opportunity to shoot some theatre productions as well as the events I work on. Hopefully I'll keep improving the skills I've been working on and get to add to my photography toolbox when I take my first online workshop next month. All of this means more posts from me - definitely with photography, and hopefully also with some new recipes.
And now I go eat some of the baked goods we made (picture a snickerdoodle cookie turned into a gooey cake. Yeah, they taste as good as that sounds)! Thanks for stopping by!
