A pleasure to look at as always Gary

very nice, especially the first one. But I also like the t&s on the last 2.

The bottom two look like Toytown......!

To be very critical, its a shame there wasn't a nicer focus than the distillery in no1. I love the smiley face in no2!

Yet again such interesting images! No 1 is my fave but love the use of the tilt, and from your view point have made the sceen look exactly like a viewer at a model village.

These are great, what did you do to the last two, i have always like this effect but not sure how you do it or what it is called.

 

[Slothmeister]

love the last two tilt shift shots, really need to try and do something like this myself.

 

[HIMUPNORTH]

Thanks guys!

Jeremy - The owners of the distillery may disagree

The Tilt & Shift is faked in Photoshop and is really easy if you have a suitable elevated shot. Works best when you have few red or yellow items as looks more toyish (if that makes sense). Here's what I do:

#1 - Duplicate photo as layer.
#2 - Apply lens filter - amount depends on image size, etc.
#3 - Apply a layer mask
#4 - Use gradient fill (reflected gradient) to bring area required (plane of focus) back into sharpness.
#5 - Boost saturation to add to toy-town feel.

That's it!

[Granty_]

Great shots and nice tilt shifts.

 

[phodru]

Class photos all of them.
#1 is probably my fave. Love the layers of depth.

 

[kendoddsdadsdog]

Absolutely wonderful!! 1 is superb!!..
It's almost too much to take in for the human eye in one image!..amazing

Absolutely stunning, love the mist layers on the first one, they are all great as usual.
