Thanks. That was the desired effect, its called tiltshift. I'm a big fan of tiltshift photography.

Very nice, really makes the pond stand out.

I never heard of tiltshift before. Very cool. But not a word I could say very fast.

It's also known as miniature faking too and is much easier to say :razz:

I added some solar lights around my pond.​

Having put them there, the jury is still out as to whether I actually like them.​

I decided to give them a few weeks trial anyway.​

That just freaks me out. Part of my brain says that's fake, another part knows it's real. If I hadn't seen the pictures of you building the pond I don't think I'd believe it was a real pond.

Okay one last photo before I leave nature to work it's magic.
Tonight I made one final adjustment to my pond by adding pebbles to create some shallow areas.
