Close-up. Amazing how razor-thin the DOF. Note barbed wire and wing in focus, body slight out of focus.
Pentax *istDL, Sigma 70-300mm DG f4.0-5.6. f/5.6@1/180, 210mm, ISO 200, 50% crop.

Use of a larger aperture would help with DOF. Usually, I start with f8, and go more if needed. That means from f8 to f16.
