Some time ago, I came across some pictures on flickr that were pretty cool miniatures.  The photos were of real life scenes only to be made to look like miniature cities or people.  Of course you could just run around and take a bunch of pictures of model railroad stations that avid train hobbyist have created.  This effect lets your imagination run wild. It’s called Tilt Shift photography.  Normally done with an expensive lens, but can be mimicked with Photoshop or other digital manipulation software.

I got lost in the Flickr group that is dedicated to this effect.  I am no where near the quality that some of these artist/photographers possess.   Anyways, here are some of the photos that I created and at the bottom of this post is the video on how I create the fake tilt shift photos.
