Hi Dphoto,
I’m assuming you mean Depth Of Field with “dof”? I took the picture (hence the self-portrait theme of the site) haha. What I did was to point the camera at the wristband on my arm, push the shutter button down halfway to allow the camera to focus and obtain a meter reading, and then I recomposed the image by pointing the lens back towards me. It took a few shots to get the correct perspective I was looking for. That’s one of the benefits of using the small Canon SD200 compact digital camera, is that it has a very wide focal lenght (17mm) and is also very light, so I can hold it close to the subject with only one hand and get the results I want.
