His other photo set of bikes is pretty cool:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilt-shift_photography
Not the greatest article, but tilt-shift refers to large format cameras, or lenses for smaller formats that emulate the effects of large. On a large format camera, the lens is mounted to a board in front, and the film holder is mounted in the back. The two are connected by a bellows. If the two planes are square with each other when the picture is taken, you will have a normal looking perspective. If the planes are skewed (looks like this; \---/) you get some interesting effects, that's tilt. Shift is when the planes are parallel, but one is higher, or one is offset to the side. |

Tilt and shift was a very effective tool to control
perspective and focus in photos. You could bring areas of your photo into or out of focus by adjusting the camera lense's angle to the film plane. And you could use it to do things like straightening out the convergence that you get when shooting tall buildings, etc. Enter Photoshop. Nowadays you can get most of the same effects in seconds by using the skew commands in PS. just make sure you shoot the original scene with enough depth of field to make everything in focus because selective or controlled focus can't be done in PS (you can blur or loose focus but you can't increase it) VF |
