15 Amazing Examples of Tilt-Shift Photography

by Bill Jones

Tweet







Tilt-shift photography is a technique that transforms photographs of real full size subject matter into what looks like miniature scenes. This can be achieved two ways.
One way is in camera with a special lens that allows you to control the rotation relative to the image plane and movement parallel to the image plane, tilt and shift. Tilt controls what is in focus and shift allows you to change the line of sight while keeping it parallel to the subject being shot.

Another way is to fake it in post processing with Photoshop. I will go through a technique to do this in an upcoming tutorial.

    These are really cool to look at. I tried this effect a long time ago, and its actually fairly easy, although I’m sure I didn’t do everything 100% correct.

    Do you have a small banner for here that I could put on my blog that I’m going to start working on? Maybe it would bring in more visitors.
