All The Small Things

I've been trying to figure out how make pictures like this:

...ever since I saw this picture by Vincent Laforet in the Atlanta Celebrates Photography (ACP) festival guide.
Cooper posted a link about it over at his blog recently so I've finally learned the name of this style.
It's called tilt-shift photography .
Making everything look like miniatures.
I think it looks so cool!
I found this tutorial about how to do this in Photoshop.
You can also buy specific lenses for this... but I also found a YouTube video on how to make your own that I'm posting below.
I'm totally doing both of these things later.
