I was bored with all the rain we are getting so did a little searching for new iPHone photography apps. I found a good one called TiltShiftGen. If you are not familiar with tilt shift photography it is very cool effect that makes a photo look like a miniature model scene.
For a great example check out this photo from http://www.tiltshiftphotography.net/
That photo is not a model but a photo that had the tilt shift effect added to it. You can actually buy a tilt shift lens but they are a $1000 easy.
Tilt-Shift miniature faking is a creative technique whereby a photograph of a life-size location or object is manipulated to give an optical illusion of a photograph of a miniature scale model.
I really did not have the right settings to test the TiltShiftGen since it was raining out. But I pulled a few leaves together for a few quick shots on the back deck. Each of these have difference settings to them via the iPhone app. You might have a hard time telling the difference between a few of them.
There is a nice Photoshop tutorial here. When I get a change to shoot something on my iPhone that lends itself better to the app I will post them.
Twitter It!
I for one am pretty excited! Chroma Circuit, Trading Stuff, Fickleblox, Just Letters, South Park, The Roach Game, and Red Hood are all available in the App Store right now. So go out and pick one of these up and give it a test.
