Upload a photo
A photo taken from a high angle (a street, cityscape, or landscape) works best for a convincing miniature look.
Image Tilt-Shift Effect
Drag a focus band over any photo to keep one strip sharp while everything else blurs progressively, mimicking a tiny miniature scene.
How it works
Set the focus band
Drag the top and bottom markers to define the strip that stays sharp; everything outside blurs based on its distance from the band.
Boost and download
Push saturation and contrast up for the classic toy-like finish, then download the result as PNG.
FAQ
What is a tilt-shift effect?
It's a technique that keeps a narrow horizontal band of a photo sharp while blurring everything above and below it, which tricks the eye into reading real-world scenes as tiny miniature models.
How do I control which part stays sharp?
Drag the two horizontal markers on the photo up or down to set the top and bottom edge of the focus band. Everything inside stays crisp; everything outside blurs progressively.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. The blur, focus band, and color adjustments are all computed locally on a canvas in your browser, and your photo is never sent anywhere.
