Tilt Shift Photo Effect

Information

Why you may need to add tilt-shif effect to a photo

Tilt-Shift is an interesting effect that makes the illusion of a toy world out of ordinary photography. Only a small area of the image is in focus, most of the image is blurred. The colors and contrast are increased and this gives an impression of unreality. The tilt shift effect can be obtained in several ways. This is an effect that is achieved when using special lenses that can tilt and rotate around their axis. This type of lens was developed for architectural photography to minimize perspective distortion. Also, this lens allows you to create an interesting blur effect that makes everything in the frame look like a toy. The only problem is the price of the equipment. Even if you already have a DSLR camera, a tilt-shift lens will cost you about 1,500 USD, and not all of us are ready to dare for such expenses for the sake of one photo effect. The good news is that you can recreate the tilt-shift effect for free. The results of applying all the methods that will be discussed are actually better than a photo taken with a classic tilt-shift lens, because you always have the original image with which you can continue to work, and not be satisfied with what happened.
