This is an entry about Photos with 2 comments

I came across this tutorial on the excellent recedinghairline site (no relation). And then last month, Mr. Kottke wrote the epic: “Olivo Barbieri’s aerial photographs [subscription] taken with a tilt-shift lens spawned some amazing Photoshopped fakes on Flickr.”

Those articles, combined with my location of the 21st floor during the day, brought me no shortage of joy. Looking at, and making little faux models, reminds me of my dad’s teeeny little z gauge train set. Or was it n gauge? I always felt the smaller the gauge of train set the better. No offense to the LGB or O gauge people, but N and Z are really where its at.
