Fake miniature 360° panorama of Oxford
Seeing this is my first post, here’s something a bit different to get this blog rolling.
This is a 360° taken from the top of Oxford’s Carfax Tower which has been processed to make it (hopefully) look a panoramic view of a miniature scale model. The basic steps taken in Photoshop were:
- Duplicate layer
- Create a gradient layer mask and apply lens blur
- Delete layer mask
- Create a new layer mask and remove blur from features that should not be out of focus
- Bump up the saturation, brightness and contrast
