How to Apply a Tilt-Shift Effect to Your Photos in Photoshop. In this tutorial, I`m going to show you how to apply a very nice tilt-shift effect to your photos.

Tilt-Shift photo effect can be achieved straight from your camera while taking photos, using tilt-shift lens, which simulates a shallow depth of field.

Il s’agit d’Emeline du blog Photo-Synthèse qui est consacré à l’apprentissage de la photographie. Sur son blog, elle enseigne d’une manière très conviviale et très précise les bases de la photo. Je vous recommande vraiment d’aller visiter son blog : photo-synthese.fr Dans cet article, je vais vous montrer comment créer un effet miniature/effet maquette, aussi appelé tilt-shift (effet de bascule-décentrement, dans la langue de Shakespeare) sur vos photos en quelques minutes, à l’aide de Photoshop CS5 (ça fonctionne avec toutes les versions de Photoshop, Gimp, etc.). Commencez par choisir une photo. Une fois votre photo ouverte, commencez par dupliquer son calque (ctrl + J / Pomme + J). Avant de vous lancer, mettez en route votre cafetière. Passez le calque dupliqué en mode masque de fusion, en appuyant sur la touche Q ou en cliquant sur l’icône (1).
Allez dans le menu Filtre > Atténuation > Flou de l’objectif. Bon à savoir.
