Hi Rannie – thanks for the notice! Two things to add – one is that t/s lenses don’t have to be THAT expensive… Certainly the Nikon and Canon lenses are. But there’s a company out of Kiev called Hartblei who make t/s lenses of comparable quality, for a third of the price. They have an American distributor, Mikhail at kievcamera.com– I’ve purchased two lenses from him so far without any problems. Your readers might also like to see my page of links to galleries of and information on tilt-shift photography – just click my name to go there. Cheers! -Hamish

There’s a flickr group dedicated to this stuff already, with over 1200 pictures! Funnily enough, my first attempt is now far and away my most popular image. I just realized it’s because it ended up in the Interestingness pool

I love this technique, but it definitely requires certain images to work properly. Funnily enough, my first attempt is far and away my most popular Flickr photo now.
