Supporting bars criss cross the arm of a crane on Cork’s Docklands in 2005. Probably the same crane I posted a few days ago.

Morning Sunrise by Jennifer Farley

The sky was incredible this morning. I took this from parents house in Dublin where in the distance you can see the remnants of the celtic tiger in the form of one crane. A few years ago when you looked in that direction you could see 10 or 15 cranes building.

Peter Cox: Playing with selective focus

§ December 11th, 2009

As seen in my recent photograph of the Baltimore Beacon, I've become quite interested in using the so-called 'tilt-shift effect' to change the viewer's perception of an image. In that image, I used an actual tilt-shift lens to create the effect. In this image of Inishtearaght I've used selective blurring in Photoshop to achieve something similar. The idea is to make a real object appear to be a tiny model with only a narrow band in focus. To do it right is quite difficult, especially with such a three-dimensional image as this. There are still some things I would refine, but I thought it might be an interesting image to share.
