Exercise: Focus with a set aperture

I started playing with dolls late in life.......at the age of 39!

I used a Nikon 35 mm lens with maximum aperture of f/2.
The lens aperture was set wide open. I then manually changed the focus between the dolls.
I seem to like the first frame the most. The nearest doll is in focus and the rest of the dolls are almost completely out of focus. My eyes wonders around a bit, before they settle on the nearest doll.
On the two other frames, my eyes seem to wonder more around before finding focus.



This exercise show that you can lead the viewers eyes to a certain point in the frame with creative use of focus. And you can use the aperture to decide how much of the elements the viewer can see clearly.
