…Simulating the effect of uniformly dense semi-transparent media within a scene - such as fog, smoke or large volumes of water. Simulating shallow depths of field - where some parts of a scene appear to be out of focus. Depth maps can be used to selectively blur an image to varying degrees. A shallow depth of…

This photo was taken with an aperture of f/22, creating a mostly in-focus background.
The same scene as above with an aperture of f/1.8. Notice how much blurrier the background appears in this photo.
Aperture = f/1.4. DOF = 0.8 cm
