Tilt Shift Photography
Tilt-shift photography refers to the use of camera movement on small- and medium-format cameras, and sometimes specifically refers to the use of tilt for selective focus, often for simulating a miniature scene. Sometimes the term is used when the shallow depth of field is simulated with digital post processing.

Macro Project
We were set the task to pick a method of photography in the past lessons and asked to reproduce some photographs of our own choosing. I have chosen to keep a theme in my photographs of stationary. I placed the subjects on plain paper in-keeping with the theme and tried to vary the light as much as possible. On some of the pictures I used a strong directional light and on others an ambient table lamp to create both sharp and soft shadows. I used Photoshop and Lightroom to edit the pictures.
