Tilt-shift

I've been enjoying looking at tilt-shift photography on the internets. It's how you make a real scene look like a miniature, by imposing a shallow depth of field and saturated colors.

Here's a tilt-shifted Eiffel Tower, courtesy of arnarbi on flickr. Teeny people, teeny cars...

And check this out for more tilt-shifty goodness.

Wow, that is really cool. It looks like you need a special lens to do it in the camera, but I also saw that you can fake it with Photoshop. I will have to try this sometime.
