Rain Spout

Rain Spout

I tried several different lenses to see how well I could blur out the background, and in so doing I realized something I should've realized before: when you use a long lens, you include much less of the background, so it becomes much easier to select only a small portion to be in the photo along with the foreground object. (Just outside of this framing were some other objects and colors that distracted from the rain spout, but I was able to eliminate them by shooting at 200mm, giving a field of view of just over 8°.)
