"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!

A Historic Day

Yes, one way or the other it will be a historic day today, Election Day in the USA, 2016. Either the "crooked" lifetime politician and first woman to be the president will win or the proven somewhat unstable "megalomaniac" and itching to start a war businessman will win. Personally, I voted for Clinton. A proven lifetime politician outweighs the alternative in my opinion. I heard a comment of with Clinton it will be "The Hunger Games" part one, with Trump it would be "The Hunger Games" part 2!! In our neck of the woods, early voting and absentee voting has been going on for over two months. We voted a couple of weeks ago. Above, in the lobby of the County Courthouse, four early voting stations had been set up for several weeks. 2 non the right and 2 on the left at the desk behind that sign. Below, I took a 'stealth' photo of some people voting. You never can tell in North Idaho what will set off people so I didn't want...

I Must Agree, 2020 Is The Year That Isn't.

 I know there are many, many people feeling along those lines.  Luckily, our area has yet to experience a large spike. Even in this rural area, the virus has made it here too. As mentioned before, most of the state cases are in the heavily populated south end of the state but there is still a count of over 38,000 positive and 451-deaths in the state.  As of this post, there has been one confirmed death of a 70-year old male, and there are currently 56-cases in this county. The most recent cases are high school sports students as schools opened on September 8th and at the last minute decided to go back to all 'in-person' classes even with all the preparations of having 'hybrid' classes of 2-days a week at school, 2-days a week online, and rotating to keep the student count down to the advised numbers to limit exposure. Our area schools are all on a 4-day week and have been for many years.  However, with those kids, are also over 65 other students who were identified w...

Soupy Sales and memories of being a kid

I first heard about Soupy Sales dieing this morning as I listened to the 60's on 6 as I was working on breakfast and getting my lunch ready to go for work. His show was often very funny, even more so as I grew up and had a better understanding of his more adult humor. I know I was seeing reruns of his old show even back then, 1970's era, but they were new to me! As I was reading on the Entertainment Weekly website about his death they had clips from You Tube to see. Boy the memories, of his as well as all the shows I remember seeing back in the mid 1960's and on. Pookie, White Fang, funny. I never cared much for the 'pie in the face' gag, but still overall funny shows. Growing up in the areas of San Bernardino, Highland and Redlands California, we watched the channels from the "greater Los Angeles area". I recall Captain Kangaroo on channel 2, Hobo Kelly on either 11 or 13, Sheriff John's Lunch Brigade ("put another candle on the birthday cake, th...
