Is the background blurry in this pro picture?

No

[DarrenToogood]

There is no background and that was taken on a different focal length.

its called distance. you dont need to focus particularly on one point of this photo as you want britney and the other girl in the photo. In the one darren took, the clothes or whatever are far from the actress so focusing on a middle point wouldnt help at all

[DarrenToogood]

To avoid getting to close, I used my zoom lens, therefore it was focusing on her and not the background. If I swapped lenses and got without a foot of her, it would have been a wide angle shot, and the backgroun would be little out of focus.

WHy not just go closer to her then. Your photo looks stupid and is poor.

and ur saying the 'pro' 1 u posted isnt? her hair looks like a second sun and chops of half her arm and head. Had it been a pro photo, it wouldnt have or at least be decent so they look decent. Their still people and things like these push celebs to the edge *hints*

[DarrenToogood]

That 'pro' image is only good because of what it reveals.

Also it was a private grouping of her freinds, I didn't want to get in her way and spoil it.

All depends on the situation and the lens
