By blurring the top and bottom of an image, as well as increasing its contrast and saturation, you can create a tilt-shift miniature fake that looks just as good (if not better) than the real thing."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1254773072.usr20447.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>Tilt-Shift photography has been around for, well, almost as long as photography has existed. It is a really neat way to making the real world look like the fake world. Personally, it makes me think of model trains and going "Toot! Toot!" but I digress. While the technique has been around for ages, with everything <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">going</span> being digital, there are several ways to do it without sophisticated SLR cameras with expensive lenses. A few clicks of the mouse and you've got your own SimWorld. Want to see what the world looks like in miniature? Check the the link and remind yourself that these are not miniatures!</p>
