Miniaturize Your Photos with TiltShift Maker

Ever tried taking photos of miniaturized landscapes and objects? Well, you can actually fake it and still get great results. Check out the samples after the jump.

TiltShift Maker converts your ordinary digital photos and make them look like miniaturized objects.

It doesn’t always work but it’s best to use photos that are angled downwards (below the horizon) to better effect. Here are some old photos I tried that turned out really nice.

You may need to do some adjusting of the photos before you upload them to TiltShift Maker. A little tweak in brightness/contrast as well as Hue/Saturation could help highlight the effect.

    sorry as an amateur photog, i didn’t like the quality… you can actually achieve this using paintshop pro and the quality isn’t diminished…
