@Kylie Greenan: Tee hee. The book is actually a guide to the wines of burgundy (though you cant tell because of the DOF). I guess you could say its a subject close to my heart.... ;-)

Love the quote and this is the oldest trick in the book! :P Although I have never tried it. Maybe I should surprise my fiancee with this :)

@Nicholas: Yes I totally agree about it being the oldest trick in the book! I am going through a shallow depth of field/bokeh thing at the moment and love experimenting with it using my nifty fifty lens. This was a trick I also have never tried before, and that seemed like a good enough excuse to do it LOL!

This may be an old trick, but I have never seen it before and think it's fantastic. Now I feel like a glass of red wine.....
