'A try with Tilt-Shift effects.

Didn't really like the picture unmodified, but with the tilt-shift thing it seems to work pretty well.'

Well done!
What's tilt-shift by the way? Something like sharpness-depth?

Something like that.

It's actually the effect a proper tilt-shift lens gives .. very shallow depth of field on, well, any picture. So normally if you take a picture of a landscape everything will be sort of in focus as it's all the same distance (far away) for the lens, but by using a tilt-shift lens it shallows it down to the top and bottom.

Works well if you have a picture from a high angle with lots of stuff on the foreground. Makes it look like you're in Madurdam

Looking man! But maybe next time try to take a more birds-eye shot, makes the effect stand even better out!
