Playing With Aperture: Valentine's Day

I had to take a photo of my daughter, watching TV in her Valentine's Day getup.  I was using my 35mm lens  since it was early morning indoors and had my aperture set to f/2.2 to minimize the distractions in the background.


Then I tried the same shot from a different perspective.


I increased my aperture to f/3.2 because otherwise you couldn't tell distinguish my daughter's face at all.  I thought the hearts on the bottom of the shoes really said Valentine's Day, plus her costume was so funny for 8 in the morning!  I love playing with depth of field!
