The Long Way There

Vincent Laforet recently posted a collection of photos relating to the (slowly) changing commuting patterns of Americans - and the photos all feature some photoshopped tilt-shift photography. He uses the process very effectively - I posted about making fake miniatures like this recently here.

Fake Miniatures

Here are a couple of fun fake tilt-shift photographs I made that are meant to look like miniature train sets or highly detailed dioramas models. I created them by some photoshopping a couple of my aerial photographs. You can find instructions on how to do it yourself here.
