Incredible Tilt Shift Photography

I love tilt shift photography! Ever since I was introduced to it, I am amazed at the growing number of photographers using this technique.

Per Wikipedia, Tilt-shift photography refers to the use of camera movements 0 on small- and medium format cameras. In many cases, it refers to tilting the lens 1 relative to the image plane   and using a large aperture 2 to achieve a very shallow depth of field 2. The technique relies on the Scheimpflug principle 1 and usually requires the use of special lenses  .

Here are a few great photo blogs featuring great examples of tilt shift photography…some incorporate still photographs and there is also an example of this technique using time-lapse photography in creating a video…..Check out some of the tutorials and try it with some photographs!
