Culture Buzz Tilt-Shift photography (which has had a long and happy life on the Internet) uses a special lens to create a shallow depth of field. What's so damn cool about it is that it makes everything looks like a miniature, toy version of itself. Here are a few particularly striking examples of the form.
A time-lapse, tilt-shift video of this year's Mardi Gras parade in Sydney. How do they get all those tiny lil plastic people to move so fluidly! Oh.
A site that makes transforming any picture into a fake tilt-shift image dead easy: TiltShift Maker. Even your over-exposed shots of fast food can look beautiful. Okay, so not so much beautiful as less trashy than usual.
Live action tilt-shift videos that make it look as if a city of miniatures has come to life. Any of these videos from Australian photographer Keith Loutit would make an amazing opening credits sequence (via Kottke). See also: tilt-shift photography.
