Good luck
The onyl problem you will have is the way focus works - you will need to set your ufocal point past what you want to capture... Think if it this way - if you set your focal point to 10 metres past your lens - but your depth of field is 5 metres - most likely 4 meters in front of the focal point will be in focus and only one behind.
I took two photo's from the same place - which will show it - one the background is really out of focus, the other the foreground is only slightly blurred... Both of these shot at f 5.6
Background blurred -
Foreground blurred -
