Boats in the V&A Harbour

Experimenting with tilt shift effect.
Had a wonderful get together with fellow Cape Town 365ers. It was really great to meet all these wonderful people. Thankfully the weather was on our side!

Cool effect! It looks like a gorgeous harbor.

[Gillian]

Nice effect. Love the harbour.

[ShanneW]

nice effect - tilt shift is fun

[GPix]

You using a tilt/shift lens or a lensbaby - or free lensing?? Cool effect. Or is it a real tilt/shift large format camera?

[Sue Wilde]

That's worked really well

[Karen H]

Fun tilt shift stuff. I find it hard to find the right shots for it. This one works

[Sally Ings]

@georgews nothing so fancy, normal photo and processed to get the effect.

[Sally Ings]

@tigerdreamer been wanting to do this ever since I found a YouTube video. I knew at the Waterfront I find something!

[Sally Ings]

@kwiksilver so sorry you couldn't make it, will have to make a plan to do it again.

[Louie]

Nice shot Sally. I don't really understand tilt shift; but like the effect of it here.

[Sally Ings]

@louiesphotos I too do not understand it properly but thought it was a fun effect. Only some scenes work though!

This is so, so, so cool! Thanks for your challenge for this week. I LOVE it! Okay, so here we go with yours. I have gone through your album and you don't seem to have any panning shots - soooo: why don't you try panning? You find everything helpful in this discussion http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/13141/camera-settings-challenge-7 (that's where I learned which settings work best for panning). Here's an example from my album http://365project.org/traeumerlein/365/2012-06-26

Ooooh! This came out so nicely! It was great to get to know you yesterday!

[Sally Ings]

@traeumerlein Such a cool challenge. Have wanted to experiment with this but haven't done anything about it, so thanks for the push. :-)

Cool effect!
