"I borrowed a tilt-shift lens a few days ago for an on-going project because I wanted to capture Zurich in an unique way. Usually you use this lens to get a bigger depth of field while maintaining a large aperture, but this wasn't my intention. So how come that a city suddenly looks like a model making?
When we see things from afar, we are used to see everything sharp and in focus. Now when suddenly there is such a narrow depth of field, our brain tricks us into thinking that these photographs were taken with a macro lens and that we are looking at a miniature model. There is no Photoshop involved except for adjusting the contrast and saturation."
