Picture taken using mechanical tilt shift and manual focus. I enjoy that as it forces me to focus on part of frame instead of entire motive - south Norway roads
On the waterfront. Under the cherries. With a tilt shift, and my girl.
Uploaded with theGOOD Uploadr. Almost certainly the best flickr uploadr ever.
A fake tilt-shift to make this photo appear to be of a miniature model. The original can be seen here. My first somewhat successful attempt at fake tilt-shifting.
(Tilt shift. Colour may be slightly off, colour corrected on an old monitor. Would be nice to have a good camera and 4k monitor.)
Wonderful Island Capri in the mediteranian sea. Funny tilt-shift manipulation. Our hotel was the red one right side at the sea.
What is it about these tilt shifts that I find them endlessly fascinating. Really, I will never tire of them.
I spend a significant portion of my day staring at mappy data visualizations. I’d like to be able to rub my eyes and see them all tilt shifted –by making them look fake, they look more real. They induce a mesmerizing cocktail of aesthetic charm, a healthy perspective of universal scale, art history, pop-psychology, a cognitive puzzle, a sense of urgency, and warm notions of Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood.
Tilt shift actually refers to the optical technique of the actual photographic process, but you can fake it digitally after the fact using regular old aerial imagery from any online map. Here’s how…
TIlt-shift experiments with a homemade tilt-shift lens (Helios 44 with what looks like bicycle tube to let it flex)
My try on a fake tilt shift attempt considering how I do not have the real TS-E lens just yet. Hopefully it does give you the miniature effect I was hoping for.
Taken around Marina Bay, Singapore.
My first attempt of "Tilt-Shift Photography" (Miniature Faking).
Thanks for "Mishari Gargary & Soud Al-Bahar" for encouraging me to try it :D

Place: 360 Mall.
I have been experimenting tilt effect with Nikon 85mm f/2.8 PC-E tilt shift lens. You can see the tilt effect in these photos.
Decided to play around with Photoshop and see if I could pull off the Tilt/Shift look with some older photos.

I simply spent the rest of the evening using my tilt shift lens trying to capture the wood scenery around us in a less than conventional manor.

Alright, so I don’t yet have my homemade cherry wood pinhole camera totally completed for test shots… just waiting for final gluing to cure after I needed to make a few last minute adjustments last night and very early this morning. But after Steven asked a bit about my plans for my future (and much more ambitious plans) to eventually build a tilt-shift camera… I figured maybe it is time to upload a few sample images of what my homemade tilt-shift lens is capable of. all shot at f/4.
These are simple test shots I just took a couple hours ago while I was walking my dog. Since I really need to work on focusing distance, I was hand-holding my tilt-shift lens in front of the camera- I did NOT secure it to the bayonet mount. Using the front Nikon F-mount bayonet mount on my ‘plunger-cam‘ style homemade tilt-shift adapter, I used my old manual focus Nikon Series E 100mm f/2.8 lens on my Nikon D300 for all these images.
I am prolly able to get nearly 20 degrees of shift and about 14 degrees of tilt. I haven’t measured, so I’m just guessing here. Yeah, some curious light leaks and flares and ghosts on my D300. No big dealio to me at this point. Maybe, kinda cool.
Cheers.

on 01 jan 2010, i began my journey w/ a new flickr group i've formed, ~365: experimental
the idea is that i strive to push myself daily; experiment, learn, & develop my photography skills further by exploring techniques, ideas, and experiments. hopefully, some of you might consider joining and we can work on our journey together! cheers.

Taken from the observation deck of the World Trade Center in Baltimore, MD. Photo was taken digitally and then manipulated using Photoshop.
My first break in photography was for the in-flight magazine of Japan’s All Nippon Airways. After the publication was printed, I would scour the pages and admire the work of other photographers, inevitably pausing when I saw a uniquely framed shot of a stunning Japanese landscape spread across two pages. I often couldn’t tell if it was a toy model or the real deal. This was before I fully understood the art of tilt-shift photography. But once I did, I made myself a promise: One day, I would use a tilt-shift lens to photograph iconic areas in Las Vegas.
It took more than five years, but last month I finally fulfilled that promise. After securing a ride with Sundance Helicopters, I consulted Google Earth to plan the route, selecting prominent areas of the Valley: the Strip (of course), Lake Las Vegas, Red Rock, Nellis Air Force Base, Las Vegas Motor Speedway, etc. Not that I had final say on the locations—we were at the mercy of the Federal Aviation Administration’s approval.
I did, however, choose our departure time. Because shadows are crucial to this type of aerial photography, there were only two ideal options: early morning or late afternoon. We opted for a 4 p.m. takeoff, and as soon as the helicopter lifted off the pad, it dawned on me that the only thing keeping me inside the doorless aircraft was my seatbelt—which sounds obvious, yet the realization still causes your pulse to race.
Perhaps to test my alertness—or my bladder control—the pilot’s first maneuver was to bank hard to the right to head north on the Strip. When he did, I was literally facing the ground. It was both awesome and frightening. Then my inner photographer kicked in and I started clicking away.
We did a couple of runs up and down the Strip, then headed toward Nellis and the speedway. From there, we went to Red Rock, which was the only place I had difficulty shooting—because the topography looked different from the air, I just couldn’t get my bearings. Another challenge: waiting for the Bellagio Fountains show to begin—I think we hovered above the Cromwell for about seven minutes. A split second after we decided to leave, the show started, and the pilot made a sharp turn so I could get the shot.
By the time our two-hour adventure across the Valley ended, I had taken more than 2,000 photographs. My editor and I then narrowed 2,000 down to 200, eventually settling on the seven images that you see on these pages
Of course, now that I’ve scratched one city off my tilt-shift photography bucket list, it’s time to add another: Next stop, Dubai!
