Making the Real Unreal

Tiltshift Photography is a technique that makes real photographs look like miniature scenes. It's an impressive creative technique, whereby a photograph of a life-size location or object is manipulated to give an optical illusion of a photograph of a miniature scale model.

Altering the focus of the photography in Photoshop (or any similar program) simulates the shallow depth of field normally encountered with macro lenses making the scene seem much smaller than it actually is.

Here's a gallery of 50 stunning examples published by Smashing magazine.
