Gosh, are those REAL or

fake model buildings
(doubt it's fake, i see the lights at the bridge)

How did you get those shots?!

[gangeslim]

some uses a tilt-shift lens
but most jus PS the effect out =)
got to do with our eye perspective how we view them
there are PS actions to do it.

it's real. See http://forums.clubsnap.org/showthread.php?t=181926 on how to do it and see what others have posted. People post once in a while still. I like most does it in CS2.

Check out this guy's webby too. Bitter Girls. one of my fav for miniature photography. He uses T & S lenses. http://blog.so-net.ne.jp/photolog/

Here's mine.
Btw, the pic is a poster, i took it from a poster. Not the real thing :P

[night86mare]

Er,

Did I do it properly?

[gangeslim]

not bad i must say!
i also realised that only certain type of photographs can do
dunno how to describe them though
but from a more physical point of view.
literally "Top-Down" approach will do =P

[night86mare]

Haha, I think cannot have sky.. Or if have, must be distorted beyond belief to look like backdrop

None of those models have clouds in the sky mar.. =D

[gangeslim]

sky can!
i have seen alot with sky haha

[PeA_NuTz]

Yup. It is damn easy to photoshop.
Quite hard to find the right photo.

Here's a list of tilt shift photography links -

I've seen some of Olivo Barbieri's large scale prints. He shoots mainly from a helicopter. I think the effect is even more astounding when you see the prints in a gallery.

Here's my attempt at the tilt shift effect on a rooftop in Rome:
