Ben Thomas sent over a URL to a very cool project:
He shrinks down cities to model size. The detail blows me away. How does he find the time?
The answer (from Michael): is Google Tilt Shift Photography
The site is worth definitely worth a visit.

very cool!
ummm... the time? these are tilt-shift photos, not actual models. i think when he refers to taking what we see everyday and shrinking it down to model size, he's referring to shrinking it down 'virtually.'
sor more like this, google 'tilt-shift photography.' yeah, i think that's the proper term.
Ha! In the meanwhile, I thought it was someone who was making little models. Funny...
Anyway, more on Google "Tilt-Shift Photography" here

This is a digital minipulation and a very cool one. I've seen several of these in just the past week - must be a new craze!
very cool!
