And Veronica gave me an aha moment with this shot.
I was intrigued and found this tilt shift maker. And created this:

Tilt shift is actually a lens you can buy for your camera, but it can also be faked in photoshop. And very easily faked with the tilt shift maker.

ReplyDeleteI know! It's magical, right?
ReplyDeleteInteresting! I am sure they were using this on Eurovision last night when they were introducing the cities! (not that I watched that much!!!)
ReplyDeleteperfect timing for this post! i was showing my partner Kris Atomic's photos of iceland and he refused to believe that they weren't miniature models and then they used it on Eurovision last night and my friend told me about it but i had forgotten what it was called. so thank you for posting this!! :)
ReplyDeleteEmma and SJ: Yup, the Eurovision was the one that trigged Veronica to write about it.
ReplyDeleteI didn't watch. Too horrible.
... and SJ: You win :-)
