Tilt-shift miniature faking is a process in which a photograph of a life-size location or object is manipulated so that it looks like a photograph of a miniature scale model.  Says Wikipedia.

This guy Keith took this idea, which has been popularized recently by still photographers, to videos of near epic proportion.  I haven't watched them all, nor is Keith the only person alive doing them, but they are highly absorbing, strange, and I am seriously attracted to the way our eyes switch back and forth between macro scale and micro scale.  These are stunning, watch "Bathtub 2" and then maybe check out "Marti Gras".    Awesome.
