Technique Challenge #24

April 18th, 2014
Ready for some fun, creativity, and to perhaps to learn something new? It’s time for a new Technique Challenge! So what is a Technique Challenge you ask? The host challenger selects a specific technique to try. The technique may be brand new for some or just a challenge to be creative or practice for others. Techniques may include high/low key, macro, portraits, landscapes, abstracts - the possibilities are endless. It could even be specific techniques in processing. The host is the photographer who won the last challenge.

Thank you to everyone who voted for me on Technique Challenge #23 – ‘Selective Colour’ and to @abhijit for selecting me as a finalist. The other finalists were brilliant and I’m honoured to have won.

So now it's my privilege to host Technique Challenge #24

MY CHALLENGE IS : Tilt-Shift

Tilt–shift photography is the use of camera movements on small- and medium-format cameras, and sometimes specifically refers to the use of tilt for selective focus, often for simulating a miniature scene. The term is also used when the shallow depth of field is simulated with digital post-processing the Snapseed app has a tiltshift option as do many other processing options.

Examples of this are:


And


And


All subjects are welcome - portrait, landscape, architecture, documentary… your choice! You can enter as many times as you would like.

The challenge will run from Sunday 20th April until midnight on Sunday 4th May. Voting will commence 5th May and the winner will be announced on the 9th. All photos must be taken within the challenge dates.

I don't have a tilt shift lens and I do have lightroom 5. So far I have not been able to accomplish this look. Does anyone have any suggestions for me in working with lightroom 5? Thank you

@moxy I downloaded a free app on my phone. I had to post the picture with my computer, go in with my phone and save it, use the app to tilt/shift, and then reload it.
