I think 'fine art' is stretching it a little. He could take the concept of fine art, run it through his miniturisation vajazzeler and come up with a new concept called 'f-art'. Much more appropriate.

Well, fine art or not, it sounds like a cool project to me! I know its a long shot posting it on here, but I thought there was a chance this post could reach the right people.

Err, so he's dressed people up and then taken a picture with a tilt lens?

Millions of tilt shift photos on the web, still cool though....

I am not a photographer so I don't know the techniques / equipment involved... I just thought the idea of doing it with cars made to look like toys in a massive corgi box was a good one

Been watching this thread today with interest. If I was a powerfully built company director with an exotic motor I would be pretty disappointed to give up a day of my time to end up with some rather underwhelming photos like the examples in your first post!

My point and shoot camera has a mode to do this. Clever, but not project worthy!

It can also be done in uder 5 minutes per photo in Photoshop: http://visualphotoguide.com/tilt-shift-photoshop-t...

I love this. Looks like something any 6 yr old lad would be playing with.

You are not a powerfully built company director with an exotic motor, so with all due respect, I don't care what you think The photos posted earlier are just quick examples and do not reflect the current project.

Points taken, but building a 33 foot long scaled up corgi box inside the Alexandra palace is not a 5 minute job.. Anyway as previously stated, I know its a long shot finding somebody interested with the right car, but I thought it was worth a go, I'm just trying to help a fellow petrol head out!
