Title: Miniature Pagoda
Post by: konstantin23 on April 27, 2009, 03:52:39

I was playing around on this website called tiltshiftmaker.com.
In 3 easy steps, you can turn any picture into one that looks like it was taken
with a tilt shift camera.

What's tilt shift photography anyway?

My pagoda looks like it's a miniature on a set!

Wow, Konstantin, these are really cool... I especially like the third photograph, where the effect is very strong. I know you are a recent member of the Pagoda community, so I'm fairly certain that you are not up-to-date with the Pagoda Photobook which is a shame, some of these would have been a great addition.

Hey Peter, I love that first shot of the race cars.
The "miniature" effect is really good on that one!

I actually liked the third picture so much it's now my desktop background!

I took the racing photograph at Zandvoort historical Formula Ford races last year...

Pat & James,

I don't know how you guys do it, but your pictures really look convincingly miniature-like! Nice pictures...
Especially the one in the Garage with other cars - I am sure 9 out of 10 people would think it's a toy car...

Got to give it another go...
