Taken with a Canon 100mm f/2.8 macro coupled with a 20mm extension tube, which significantly reduced DOF.

Is the depth of field created by the focus point of the lenses? Or is it post processing? I was playing around with the idea of having an image with 2 focus points with which something like this it seems like it would be a possibility.
Great entry!

Thank you! Almost all of the DOF was created by a combination of the camera lens and the eyeglasses, I blurred the logo a tad more in post processing so that the photo didn't appear as a product shot, and I carried the post processing blur up to the nose bridge and out to the right of the frame.

Sweet! Nice attention to detail.
Love how you bring on the thirst and the possible future satisfying feeling of having a brew by centering it in the circle of the lens.

I like it a lot. Nice work with the glasses to emphasize the theme.

I find myself studying the image, different yet intriguing.

Love the picture (and the beer bottle too)!
Not sure to understand how it relates to DoF though.

I like this image - nice work. I would recommend that you try eliminating the black shadow at the bottom of the page - either via cropping or with a healing brush / clone. Just my opinion of course...

Nice shot. I'm digging the glasses a lot. Nice composition and colors as well.

I don't understand your question. Depth of field has to do with the portion of an image that is in focus in relation to the portion out of focus as you move from the front to the back of the scene. It is the range of object distances within which objects are portrayed with acceptable sharpness, and it can be either shallow with a fraction of an inch in focus, or deep with the entire image in focus. Eyeglasses and camera lenses are all about depth of field.
That is what I was attempting to depict with my entry.

Thank you for your suggestion. What you are seeing is the edge of a magazine, and if you will notice, it runs along the left side of the image as well. Perhaps I should have shown more of it, or none of it.

Right - I think the left side works as it represents the fold which is also in view. To me - the one at the bottom distracts just a little from the image. I'm nitpicking here...
