Tilt
and shift
What is tilt and shift?
Tilt and Shift photography is a technique
that can be created on Photoshop or you can purchase lenses that are called
‘Tilt-Shift Lens’. My interpretation of this particular technique is basically
taking a photograph and blurring out the majority of the image.
A Tilt-Shift lens is something that will
allow you too move the body of the lens in time to the cameras image sensor.
This technique works by creating a shallow
depth of field but this is not technically a shallow depth of field it is to do
with how you tilt the lens. Tilting the lens allows you to increase or decrease
the amount of image that actually focuses.
I have researched a photographer who hired a
helicopter to fly around Birmingham so he could use a tilt-shift lens. People
who use Tilt-Shift mostly use this technique for architecture.
Here are some examples of Tom Merilion’s
images from his ‘Concrete dreams’ series.
Below is the Tilt-Shift that I created, the top image is the before and the bottom is the after.
