thx :-)
It's really the lens aperture (how much light is let in) that determines the DoF, not the distance to the subject. A smaller f- number will result in more DoF blurring, but it also needs more careful focussing.

Wide open means literally that, the aperture diaphragm inside the lens is wide open.
