Digital Tilt Shift

Tilt shift lenses are a specific type that skews the depth of field of the image, and the effect often causes full-size things to look like miniature models.
These lenses are not inexpensive, so the challenge is to recreate the look digitally.

My first attempt, a picture I shot of Temple Bar in Dublin on our honeymoon

My second try, with a picture of a local house I shot with the intention of tilt-shifting it... the elevated POV from the original helps with the miniature look, as does the increased saturation of the after image.
