The other day I learned about a new photography technique called tilt-shift.  The biggest thing viewers notice about this technique is that it makes the subject appear miniature.  I unfortunately don’t yet have the means to achieve this effect genuinely, but the appearance can be rendered with a bit of work in Photoshop.  I researched this, wanted to try it out, and the photo below is the result.

I love going downtown. Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, any large city. I like being amidst all the action, history and culture that are unique to each particular metropolis. Not only that, the scenery. Oh, the scenery! While I certainly appreciate the vistas offered by nature, manufactured scapes can also be a sight to behold. I went shootin’ around LA today and here a couple of my shots.
