That photo of Mignon in the first post is UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

The image has a shallow depth of field which means that there is only a very short distance (from front to back) that is in sharp focus. This shallow DOF is what makes the background to be blurred. This is the way that professional photographers photograph their subjects so that the true focal point of the image is THE SUBJECT and not the background. The setting is awesome but it isn't the focus of that photo -- it is secondary - complimentary!

Thanks for sharing pictures of the King and Mignon!!
