Fun With Photoshop

So I've been pretty excited about tilt-shift photography for the past month or so.. well.. it amazed me until I found out the lenses were over $1,000..

Today, however, a post over at boingboing.net linked to a photoshop tutorial that shows how to give a tilt-shift effect to any photograph.

I tried it out.. and here's some of the pictures I came up with. You'll notice that the genius with tilt-shift is it's ability to make life-size things look like pictures of close-up miniature models.
