TILT SHIFT

I can't get enough. Tilt-shift is a photographic technique that I'm not going to try to explain off the top of my head because I'm still trying to figure out how to actually achieve it manually. I see there are now apps that simulate this effect. Recently, hundreds of people have started posting tilt-shift photos, which magically transform any land/peoplescape into what appears to be a miniature diorama. Photography is magic. And I love anything and everything pertaining to miniatures. Thus I am obsessed with tilt-shift photography.

There are thousands of pictures out there, like in Flickr's Tilt-Shift Pool, but the video work of Keith Loutit captures it all and puts it into motion. Here is his "Bathtub IV":
