For the fake miniatures project, I first increased the saturation of each image. Then, the user is prompted to select 2 points (the focus of the image). Afterwards, we use a gaussian blur starting from the focus and make it more and more blurry the farther we get from the focus.

For this project, I started off with a subject. I took pictures as I backed up and zoomed into the image. A series of these images creates this vertigo shot.
Here are some results

I encountered some difficulties. First, it was really difficult to keep the camera still. Second, it was difficult to keep the camera zoomed to the same size.
