I guess my subsequent post led me to this one.
I am going to have to look this up but I could swear this was something we learned in our large format camera studio class. It was when learning how to maneuver the 8×10 and 4×5 cameras. I’m glad those days are gone.
Now it is an artform. Or a style. “Tilt-Shift” photography. It is fake, of course – it isn’t really about physically tilting and shifting, and yet it isn’t really “fake” – it is just a matter of post-production – the manipulation of an image. It isn’t a matter of how you get there – the process – just that you get to your end results, right?

I guess this is a tutorial of how to fake it via Photoshop.
This photograph delights me in every sort of way. The whimsy of it, the genius of it … the simplicity. The way the miniaturization actually intensifies the notion of an abandoned, isolated playground.
