Net Mole: Tilt-shift photography

photograph©judepics

Tilt-shift photography is a photographic technique that relies on the use of special lenses to simulate a shallow depth of field which makes real life objects appear as miniature models. The effect is achieved by tilting the lens relative to the photographed image to achieve a very shallow depth of field.
Tilt shift encompasses two different types of movements: rotation of the lens, called tilt, and movement of the lens parallel to the image plane, called shift. Tilt is used to control the orientation of the plane of focus to produce an image that appears sharp.while Shift is used to control the perspective.
