Yes, I’m back on the show! Managed to escape from my announcer, Scott Fletcher 
Today’s show contains a good exercise to help you get a better feeling for the relation between Aperture and Depth-of-Field.

Dear Chris,
I love how you have used the widely available hack, and used the Album Art box for the Show’s Picture. I have a new iPod with a color screen, and I could view the photo while I was walking in my neighborhood. I love the show, keep up the great work!

P.S. How’s Doori Cha doing nowadays?
Thanks for the great feedback, Mark. Err.. who is Doori Cha? Oh wait.. my brother just told me it’s a soccer player. Hahah.. I’m not really into soccer (did you notice the lack of sports photography on the show so far? :))
hi Chris,
Thanks for the great shows. I have already learnt so much. I am relatively new to photograpghy, and found this episode really useful. My Parents and Brother have been pestering me to get some good photos of their lovely garden, and until now I found it difficult to just focus on the flower in question, without the background getting in the way. You have made me, very happy as well as my family.
Keep up the good work, and thanks a million.

Teaching a class and loving turning on my students to this but need the Depth of Field Calculator Chris talked about being able to download - anyone know where I go for that?
