25 Inspiring Tilt-Shift photographs
July 19th in Photography, Showcase by NiNOO .Tilt-shift photography is a creative technique and a unique type of photography in which the camera is manipulated so that a life-sized element can look like a miniature model.
Tilt-Shift photography refers to the use of camera movements, and it usually requires special camera lenses to make the miniature effect. The word “Tilt-shift” actually encompasses two different types of movements: rotation of the lens called tilt, and movement of the lens called shift.
A tilt-shift lens allows the photographer to control over the depth-of-field in an image more than a regular lens.
Below, you’ll find 25 of the most inspiring tilt-Shift photographs I have come across on Flickr. Make sure you click on the thumbnail to go to the photographer’s Flickr page.
Can’t Afford The Expensive Lens?
Because the lenses are a bit expensive to purchase, designers and photographers have figured out a way to accomplish this technique using Adobe Photoshop, here’s a link:

Following that particular tutorial, I’ve been able accomplish this little peace of artwork.

Wow, thanks for this share! I have been trying on experimenting with Photo editing but always failed to get what I want. At least these photos can guide me next time.
Do you have tutorials for this? I mean, how many amounts of blur, etc.

Hey Nina :D Thanks for the recoomendation on the phone ;) It looks veeery nice , but I just wanted a cheap one, because I always destroy my stuff in no-time. And I thought that since I hate messaging or atleast did, this would be an opportunity to save some money. With my last phone I called someone for the smallest thing – That resulted that I used my monthly 200NOK in the first 4 days.
I think red’s Ok :D If I get any damages or anything on it I’ll ask for the blue one , If they’ll give me a new one. Thanks :D
Amazing photos in this blog! :D
Anyway, How are you Nina ?:D Anything special happened latley ?;D

lol, it was funny to see my sister open her gift since she didn’t saw her own face first – she really thought she got the dvd xD
