    Ah the old tilt and shift filter.

    I once fabricated a periscope for Pecorama, the model train manufacturers so they could use a normal DSLR to do this, and now you can download a plug in for it.



    I've wasted my life.

    I pity that geezer on the push bike when he gets to the bottom of the corkscrew.


    But not as much as I pity him once he gets to the top.

    Great images fellas - I'd love to get into photography and learn more about it.

    Seen the tilt and shift stuff before but didn't know what it was - just having a look on net, check some of these out.... Think some on here are as good though. Mevagissey bay is class!!

    I'm going to have a go with Photoshop later and see how difficult it is without plug-ins and wizards.

    We've sold a few to medical photographers over the years but they are a bit niche. I think that's why we ended up with it. The railway model engineers at Pecorama needed to do the reverse though. They wanted a model diorama to look real and we had to come up with a way to 'un-force' the perspective. I was there for a week. It was horrible. workshops full of tiny, scale, engineering tools and components. A terrible time.

    Honest.
