Disable your flash, set your camera to MF, AV f3.5, ISO200. Find a long edge - your table, a countertop, the fence in your backyard, a bannister, a windowsill. Standing in the same spot at one end, manually focus so that you have 3 images with distinctly different focal points along that straight edge. If you're feeling adventurous and want to take your shooting to the street, this would be a really fun one to do in a grocery store in the soup aisle or in the library along the bookshelves! If you really want to challenge yourself, find a table or countertop that has a distinct end - something about 6-8 feet long. Try adjusting your aperture so that the entire length of the edge is in focus, but drops off suddenly at the end so everything beyond he table fades off into Bokeh oblivion...
