I took this photo at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk yesterday afternoon, from the pier. I wanted to be able to show the boardwalk in the background, so I used a long focal length (85mm) so that the boardwalk would appear larger in the background. I used a smaller aperture so that the boardwalk would be sharp enough so that you could see the details, but I like how in this photo the boardwalk is just blurry enough so that the people remain the focus of the image in the foreground.

 

f/10 @ 1/640 second.
