About Image Tilt Shift

The Image Tilt Shift tool allows you to create a "miniature faking" effect. By keeping a specific strip of the image in sharp focus while blurring the top and bottom, it tricks the eye into thinking the subject is a tiny model or toy set.

How to Use?

  • Upload a photo (high-angle shots work best).
  • Adjust the "Focus Position" to select which horizontal strip stays sharp.
  • Adjust the "Blur Radius" to control how blurry the rest of the image becomes.
  • Download the miniature-style photo.

Features

  • Selective Focus: Highlight specific subjects like cars or people.
  • Miniature Effect: Makes real-world scenes look like toys.
  • Gradient Blur: Smooth transition from sharp to blurry areas.
  • Fast & Free: Create effects instantly online.

FAQ

Why does it look like a toy?

Our eyes associate a very shallow depth of field (where only a small slice is in focus) with macro photography of small objects. Applying this look to a large scene mimics that optical characteristic.

What is the best angle for this?

Photos taken from a high vantage point (looking down at a street, stadium, or city) produce the most convincing miniature effects.

Does it support circular focus?

This specific tool typically applies a linear (horizontal) tilt-shift, which is the standard for the miniature effect.
