Tryin a tilt n shift!!

Posted by Linerberry (Christchurch, New Zealand) on 27 May 2009 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

Thank you all so very much for your Silly Tuesday shots and comments!!!
You're a great bunch of Silly Billies!!!!!

This is image is just a bit of fun with tilt n shift:-)
Happy Wednesday!!

Don't forget****** "Silly Tuesday" ******where you can post anything that is silly, funny, daft or just makes you laugh!!!
For those of you that don't know the origin of Silly Tuesday here is a bit if a run down....It started on this day. My thoughts were as follows......
Monday is the start of the week...
Wednesday is the middle of the week.....
Thursday is nearly Friday and Friday is the start of the weekend:-)
I know some people work weekends as I am one of them:-)
But its still the weekend BUT......
What is Tuesday???? Its just a Silly Day that means nothing....so thats where ST came from:-)
Join in the Silliness:-)
Love Silly Mama:-)

If you post on ST then leave a link on my page then others get to see your silliness:-)

Great attempt, not sure if the subject suits 100% but one has to give all things a try

I like that selective focus. Did you use a software for this or a real lens?

27 May 2009 8:27am

@MadScientist: I used http://tiltshiftmaker.com/ I have just discovered this thanks to a lovely am3er. Its free and great fun!!!

MrsAmber from West Wickham, United Kingdom

Thanks to Anthony yesterday I now know how to do this! I was planning to have a go but thought I needed a 'looking down on a town' sort of shot. but with this shot it has worked too! It gives it that strange toy-town look even though it is water..I suppose it looks like 'Thunderbirds' water! It really is a strange effect ..a very good first attempt! I really must try it myself. ....xxx tick tock...xxx

@MrsAmber: I know , I wasn't sure about the subject cos it does seem to lend itself to town/city scenes but hay....you know me sis...ever the hopeful!!! lol Glad u like it:-)

Lorraine from Gatineau, Canada

Nice picture though tilt and shift does not convince me in general as a technique and I suspect this was a better shot without it.
Did you miss my 'Fresh legs' yesteday? It was a silly shot.

27 May 2009 10:06am

@grouser: Thanks for your constructive comment:-) I did miss you legs on Silly Tuesday....you know what its like with me and you....I seem to get your posts a day behind even though I watch your blog!!!! We have tried to work it out but it seems not to be!!! Lovely legs and thank you for being a Silly Billy!!!!

Curses I mean yesterday

Anthony Morgan Lambert from Bielefeld(old Pembroke Dock boy,Wales), Germany

I´ve just had a look at that site,I´ll have to try it out(I´ve muddled through on my own until now doing tilt shift)
I think you´ll find that a shot from a higher vantage point will give you the "Model" look better but this is also a very good use of selective focus that really brings the waves leaping out of the shot.

27 May 2009 10:10am

@Anthony Morgan Lambert: Cheers mate!!! Glad you like the software...it is fun! You are right that one needs a higher vantage point for this to work. I think I was a bit over excited and just wanted to do something and realised I had few shots that would be best for this. So I got excited.....what the heck, we're all friends lol!!!! Looking forward to some TnS from you:-)

jeff (aka dogilicious) from Millerstown, PA, United States

I tried "tilt-shift maker" also. can't seem to find a picture that I like yet. This is a pretty cool effect.

27 May 2009 10:25am

@jeff (aka dogilicious): Its a funny old thing and I think one has to be a bit selective....as I said to Anthony.....I just got a bit carried away lol!!!

Susan from Fort Lauderdale, FL, United States

It's a cool shot!!! Now I have to go and find out what "tilt & shift" is!!!

That's really great, I do love this effect as well ! Great achievement indeed. I've done some with images on Venice ! : -)

Bookfool from Mississippi, United States

Cool! I haven't had much success with tilt-n-shift photos, but I think maybe I need something with a little broader perspective. Buildings seem to work well.

dkc from Xanthi, Greece

I just love photos taken with this effect ... everything seems so strange and minimalistic! I like the way you captured the wave here!

Monique from Koh Samui, Thailand

This is more than a coincidence ... check out my photo for today and you'll find out! :)))
I love the photo, but I think to get a real miniature feeling you needed a boat or other focuspoint in the waves ;)
