Oleh Chris Grinter, on January 12th, 2011% Alex Wild posted a few days ago about the “freelensing” photography technique. You can get some really cool results, especially with creating the illusion of miniatures – but so far I haven’t been brave enough to give it a shot (no pun intended). I came across this impressive compilation of Haitian images on NPR today . . . → Baca Lebih: Some really cool tilt-shift
