What is the goal of Photo Challenge?
My view is to get members in the "field" and take new photos to make new photos. Field could be your table depending on what the challenge is. To me it is a learning experience not searching your photo library to locate a photo(s) that meet the challenge. Yes I recently "dumpster diving" to meet a challenge. Although I learned that it reminded natural framing of a subject is a powerful composition technique. Usually, for me, it's a serendipity experience. What is your view?

Use a wide Aperture...
I've often commented, more is a Rant, that many teach "use a wide Aperture to blur the background" it's not false but only one third of the full truth. 1. Aperture 2. Lens Focal length 3. Distance With your variable focus length lens, a telephoto, focus on something say 30 feet away. Use your shortest focal length lens, widest Aperture. Take a photo. Without moving use a lounger focal length, focus on the same target. Take another picture. What do the photos tell you? Watch this video https://youtube.com/shorts/9AbC6gb2GSU?si=HOQh8IiUOhBQJUV4

@Kenrick Fischer I'm sure you used https://dofsimulator.net/en/ . Sometime in some online course, likely MattK I discovered it. I preferred proof rather than simulation. So a few years ago at Maplewoods campground near Johnson I was sitting and with my 14-150mm (2x crop) at 14mm f/4.0 I focused on another site power post, then zoomed about 75mm took another, then at 150mm @f/5.6 another. The photographic proof made a believer of me. That made question most pundits and most instructor's. I have a Blog, mostly to rant and remember. https://larrysphotography41.blogspot.com/2025/12/its-not-that-simple-why-there-are-no_081188034.html?m=1
