Trip Photos, Skewed


I recently came back from a weekend trip to San Francisco to visit a good friend and I returned with about 300 photos (impressive for only 2 full days!). Upon my return I noticed a post on Apartment Therapy about Tilt-Shift Miniature Making, where you take an ordinary photograph (usually a landscape/cityscape) and tweak the focus to make it appear to be a miniature model! I had tons of fun fooling with my SanFran pics and look forward to playing with this feature in the future!

the photo above is the tilt-shifted version of my original photo of Sausalito, below:

Cool Color Combo


I stumbled upon this post on Apartment Therapy, and as blue (along with green) is my favorite color, I loved these blue and natural toned rooms!


(above) Preeeetty... and so calming.

(above) Loooove the blue upper wall with the low blue accents! Awesome idea!
