So it turns out that many of the photographs in that Smashing article in my last post aren’t actual tilt shift, they’re digital imitations.  This includes the one by roevin that I featured.  Still very neat photos, though.  And in investigating my friends Mark and Joel’s allegations (see, Joel, you actually are in this note) I discovered more of roevin’s beautiful photographs.  Check them out here.

If you want to see more of roevin’s fake tilt shift, go here.  They’re quite impressive.

I don’t know why you would want to make reality look like a toy, but it’s a really cool trick.  Thanks to T Clair for the link to this article: http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2008/11/16/beautiful-examples-of-tilt-shift-photography/. My favorite photo is this one by roevin.

Thanks to Bethany for the photo.

I love that whatever is terrifying the rest of the children is thrilling the one in the middle. And how adorable are the two little ones in the bottom right with their arms around each other?

The ice cubes in our freezer had melted and refrozen into one giant block.  I enjoyed melting it creatively with hot water.
