Everything looks like a model from above

For my first post in this forum, I have a picture which I took two weeks ago east of Munich. The original picture already looked like a model, so I added a fake tilt/shift effect to it to enhance the effect.

Wow, yeah. That reminds me of the work I did for my degree and for arch competitions.
Nice.

Very cool...I'm going to have to play with this some before I get brave enough to post something...but that's a really cool effect.

For the photo buffs I know are here, I found this:

plus on flickr, you can do a search for tilt-shift tags to get ideas...
