Selective Depth of Field

(Image taken with a Fuji S5 Pro camera)

This is a good example of using selective depth of field to focus your attention. The headstock of my five-string Fender Jazz Bass is the main subject being photographed, but you can also see a guitarist in the background who is out of focus. This lets you know the context of the subject matter (musical instruments) but the headstock also seems to point you to the guitarist as well. "Artsy", huh? :)
