Cranford Rose Garden tilt-shift timelapse

Dave Allen shot this nifty timelapse video of three days at the Cranford Rose Garden at Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Each still frame of the video was treated with a tilt-shift lens effect in Photoshop. Link

copy/paste will always get the better of us

I keep getting a message saying the "video no longer exists".

An admirable experiment, but I'm not so sure the results were worth the expenditure.

Here is another fun tilt-shift time-lapse http://www.xrez.com/gallery/yosemite/xRez_yose15.html . This was made with a different technique. The image was projected onto a DEM (digital elevation model) and rendered in 3D allowing the camera to move as well as rendering accurate tilt-shift.

Here is the original application of this technique...

Shooped tilt-shifts never seem to look right.

@4 Gigarizel
Thanks for the link. What a beautiful video.I want it to go on and on.

I've never seen the tilt-shift effect before and now have some research to go do. Very exciting.

@5 EH

I agree. It's go easy to do with the proper camera too.

I see the tilt effect, but not the shift, if that makes sense.

I looked at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden page, it seems strange to me that they credit the music for the time-lapse but not the photography.

I was expecting to see something that had used a real tilt-shift lens (Photoshop doesn't count) and had be slowly adjusted over time achieve some neat effect. This is simply a time-lapsed video with a Photoshop filter. Still, it was interesting. But the title isn't accurate.

I loved the music

Oh, and that their botanical garden has more than cacti.
