"Tilt Shift" examples

Last night I thought I might as well post three of my "Tilt Shift" photos on the blog so those without access to my Web Albums can understand what I was raving about!

As I'd said yesterday I think this type of photo manipulation is really interesting, taking photos of things and make them look like models, love it!

Anyway, these photos.
Top one was taken in 2007 when I was flying over the town and is the county Sheriff's office that also houses the jail and the drivers license office. Tall building at right is the county Court House.




From the same flight in 2007, this photo is of the county Library with the Veteran's memorial and the towns very large flag there to. I think this photo works really well as the flag was blowing in the wind that afternoon. Overcast really helps with the lighting to make all more 'model like'.




The last photo below, I think came out the best of these three. It was taken last November at the giant train station in Berlin Germany. This facility is several stories of rail lines for all the coming and going traffic. This technique, as well as the ambient lighting at the station, produced an image that looks like it came right out of a very expensive model railroaders home setup!
These are just photos I had that turned out to work really well for this type of photography. I took them, tweaked them and am actually pretty pleased with the outcome. Like I'd said yesterday, there are hundreds of thousands of examples of this type of photography from all over the world at various locations on line.
Check others out with a image or video search!

Just an update

It is getting more like fall to winter now in our area. All the weather forecasts give the possible snow levels and altitudes in the recordings. The temps have been in the low 50's for the past week which is the normal temp range. It has warmed up at night to the low thirties from the low twenties of last week and earlier this week. Next week it's forecasting only low to mid forties! For the high temps! In looking at photos and the older blogs, last October 27th, 2009, was the first snow of the season back then. Will it snow around the same time this year? Stacy and I are both off work next week because our daughter Laura and her son, the only grand kid so far, will be flying out this Sunday for a weeks visit. Stacy and I are really looking forward to the visit. Last time Laura was here was in the summer of 2006 for a couple of weeks. Quite a lot has changed in her little family since then! And Tyler is 4 years old now so he might do more than sleep or cry as he did last visit!...

Its Fall again!

Although the date this says 'posted' is from a while back, I'm online to type about theses photos and get this posted for you to see today, October 12th! I'd uploaded these and the next post couple of photos fully intending to get right back to it in a day or so, it just didn't happen like that. Stacy's father took a trip to California to visit family out there and since he was gone (he's getting back tomorrow night) we've been very busy working at home as well as stuff going on at work. So it's been busy, busy, busy! Stacy left this morning to fly to Boise for meetings (again!) and will be back late tomorrow too. On to these photos; top one is actually on our property, just out back in the forest. The fern was just going yellow to gold then, on this fall morning, it is really golden and rust browns now just a couple of weeks later. Middle photo is a road a little over a mile away in the early evening that I liked with the late day sun on the Aspen ...

I can't say I'm on a roll just yet, but here's a new post!

So, to continue with last weeks story. In August, Stacy finally got the trailer she's been wanting all along. Yes, while I like the larger, around 28 to 30 foot or so, RVs, Stacy has kept the idea that smaller is better. Smaller can go pretty much anyplace you'd want to camp and our 5th wheel, at 34-feet long, while it can go most places, it can't go 'anyplace' due to the length. When we got the 5th wheel in July 2017, I was surprised Stacy was willing and even suggested, we go for it trading in our 33-foot travel trailer to get the Jayco. Again, the "Wildcat Maxx" was a nice travel trailer. It had made several short and two long trips in the almost two years we'd owned it. We lucked out as in an era of the rapid assembly to make the crazy sales numbers the RV industry has been having, the Wildcat was "completed on a Wednesday by happy Amish at the factory" as we didn't have any of the build issues I still read about from the appar...
