Following my own investigation, millions of people all over the world receive the business loans from good creditors. So, there is good possibilities to get a secured loan in every country.

I like the third of the ones you did today the best. I think it gets the DOF the most "correct" at least in terms of what you would see from a macro shot.

This is a cool effect that I've seen before and thought had a different purpose. (I've even seen your mall shot before and thought it was for a different purpose.) I like not only how it makes the landscape look toyish, but how it really isolates your subject in a very interesting way.

Thanks for sharing! It means a lot!

Is this the Lawrence I know? What an unexpected suprise to find a mini-PS tutorial on the blog. Well done. I really like this effect. It's too bad I didn't think of it first because now I would be a copycat if I do it. I am secretly hoping that you are going to do a project with this technique. I think it would be interesting.

Anyway, another great photographer who uses the tilt-shift lens technique in a subtle way is David Hilliard. He's got a great book available over at Aperture.org. Here's a link with the cover image:

Thanks for the detailed tips and procedures! As you probably remember I've created some of these minature images myself (pbase "minature world"), but used a completely different … and have to say amateur … method. Your PS method is much better. Thanks!
