Continuing my experiment... This is an old photo of mine, taken from a ski lift in summer 2001. Here I chose a certain row of buildings to be the focus of miniaturization.
Davos is the highest town in Europe with the altitude of 1510 m.

More about the town:

Davos (Romansh: Tavau, Italian: Tavate) is a municipality in the district of Prättigau/Davos in the canton of Graubünden, Switzerland.
It is located on the Landwasser River, in the Swiss Alps, between the Plessur and Albula Range.
Davos is famous as the host to the World Economic Forum (WEF), an annual meeting of global political and business elites, which is often referred to as simply Davos. It is also known as a winter sports area, including serving as the site of the annual Spengler Cup ice hockey tournament, which is hosted by the HC Davos local hockey team.
Davos is the largest ski resort in Switzerland and the highest city in Europe.

Hi Kristof

Getting better all the time! The miniature filter and shallow dof works well in this superb high pov. Nice layering into thirds as a result. Tfs!

They're getting better as you go through your series here Kristof.. This is a perfect shot for this technique..

This is a good one!!

Hie Kristof,

Another nice experimentation...How did you do that actually? Do you use just photoshop or specific software?

TFS,
Hong

Hello Kristof,

It seems like you are mastering this technique. I browsed your gallery a few times this week, but my time has been very limited to even write a comment. You're using the site very well. I remember you started here either a week or two before or after me last year May. It's an inspiration when people put out their learning process and try new things. I only wish I could do more. Hopefully this will change.

These miniatures are interesting POVs with this technique; you do get the sense that it's a model of some sort.
Keep shooting...
Kind regards,
Jim
