associate very shallow depth of field with close-ups or in other
words, small objects.
That why, when the Hologon for the Leica came out I got it to take
pictures of architectural models. The Leica with lens could fit into
small spaces, and especially along streets at intersections of
models, and the great depth of field made the photos look less like
models and more 'real'.
