the lights in a row, taken from hyperfocal distance - which means that even in f2.8 the DOF is unlimited.
well...aperture is not all to consider if aiming for a certain DoF ;)

I’m sorry Oli but I’m gonna have to fundamentally disagree with you on your ‘unlimited’ dof definition. I do agree that the point of focus is all important to make best use of any chosen aperture but the size of that aperture is also important in defining the zone of sharpness within your image. Your image does not have sharpness between the three lights there is clearly softness in the foreground lamp especially when compared with the furthest lamp which is not at all surprising given your f2.8 aperture, something nearer f11 may have given you the sharpness needed for this challenge.
I really dig the feel here, what you left in, and what was not included in the room. The lighting seals the proverbial deal on the mood. Industrial but warm- mechanical but somehow human as well. Vastly underrated.
