'Eiffel Tilt-Shift II' by ArnarBi


Eiffel Tilt-Shift II, originally uploaded by ArnarBi.

I don't know if you've ever heard of a photographic effect called tilt-shift but I think it's awesome. Here's an amazing example of it. Basically it's a process that makes normal photos look like minature scale models. To be honest I don't know a lot about it but the effect can be achieved either by using a special lens or faking it with photo editing software. Either way it looks really cool! What do you think of it?

  1. This is cool. I've never heard of it. The picture is really interesting!!

    ps-I asked the Chef about Pimms - he said it is gin related? Is that right? If so, I think he's been drinking them at brunch recently!!

    mmmmmm booze.

    There's a monday for ya!

  6. It is VERY interesting. I would have thought it was photoshopped if you hadnt explained the process, so no I haven't heard it before.
