Have you ever looked at model villages, trains, planes etc, and always wondered what would it look like if the whole world around me was a miniature model? Well using the tilt-shift method now you can see what those famous landmarks, boats on a lake, cityscapes would look like if they were model miniatures. The website Tiltshift maker allows you to upload any photo and turn it into a tilt-shift image with ease.

Step 1: Find a photograph you want to manipulate. Finding the right photograph can be tricky but head over to the website and take a look at the featured images or have a go of the samples provided.

Step 2: Upload the photo. The rules for uploading are it has to be in the jpg/jpeg format, no bigger than 4096×4096 in resolution and no bigger than 5MB file size. It can take anything from a few seconds to a couple of minutes depending on the size of the photo and connection speed.

Step 3: Once you have uploaded the photo you should see this:

Tweak the photograph until you have something that looks like a model.

Step 4: Download the final image and upload it wherever you wish. Tiltshiftmaker have a flickr and photobucket group so you could add them too that.
