A photo showing a shallow depth of field is photo #10. The f-stop of this photo was approximately f/2.5, the ISO was about 350 before editing, and the White Balance was set on flourecent. A photo with a large depth of field is photo #6. The f-stop is about f/16, the ISO was also around 350, and the white balance was also set on flourecent.
Photo #10 is a better picture, following the rule of thirds and having a good contrast balance, as well as color. I would want to use a shallow depth of field to bring out an object more, and allow a viewer to focus on that object more over the other objects that are not in focus, at a distance. A large depth of field would be ideal for a photograph that has a purpose to have everything in focus, so all the objects in the photograph share an equal amount of attention.
