This image was produced using a technique called freelensing. This involves simple dismounting your lens and holding it a few millimetres away from your camera. You can then move the lens backwards and forwards to focus and tilt the lens for a tilt-shift type effect.
I've found this technique can work well with a wide variety of lenses from standard modern AF lenses, to classic manual focus lenses, to various weird lenses like 35mm projection lenses.
You images will be very low contrast and hazy because of all the extraneous light that will reach the sensor, but I like this effect. You can use lots of dehire slider in Lightroom to cut through the haze, which tend to introduce quite a bit of false colours, which again, is an effect I quite like.
