Tilt-Shift Photography
I came across ‘Little Sydney’ by Keith Loutit today. The artist has taken shots of events held in Sydney throughout the year using a clever technique called ‘Tilt-shift photography’ or ‘miniature faking’. Miniature faking is a post-processing technique which involves blurring a photo to simulate the narrow depth of field found in macro photography and some tilt-shift photography, making the image appear to be of a miniature scale model. However, Keith hasn’t stopped there. He’s painstakingly pieced together a huge number of sequential photographs to create a convincing ‘animated’ miniature city. The result is fantastic! Take a look here.
