I am offering up two assignment this week just in case force perspective is too difficult for the beginners (and that enclosed yours truly). The second assignment is faux tilt shift and both these technical sounding terms will all make sense when I show the samples. Students are welcome to do either one or both if you are feeling inspired. Digital Photography School currently has some great examples on their site. Here's a tutorial I found for you that gives you details to accomplish your own FP capture.

As you may have gathered this technique is both fun and funny. Imagine how charming the addition of this technique will look in your family photo album? The second assignment is faux tilt shift which again is an exercise in perspective, it makes everything look miniature which is fun for the whole family! To achieve this you will need to have an image that you shot looking down on, preferably from up high and then you will run it though the Tilt Shift Maker all images are from the Tilt Shift Maker gallery (and are RAD).
I can't wait to see what you come up with! Have fun!!! If you want to join in on our good times enrollment is currently zilch, nada, rien and worth every penny! You can join Souvenir Foto School here today...
