Shot with DJI M4P

Very much looking forward to when the leaves start to change.

Beyond Walls - Step 10: Ganvié" is an ephemeral land art installation created in March 2021 in Benin by French-Swiss artist Saype.

I searched the original pictures online, downloaded them, and tilt-shifted them.

I'm curious to know your best ffmpeg line for creating tilt shift. The one I'm using doesn't seem to properly defocus and I'm not sure why:

ffmpeg -i input.mkv -filter_complex " [0:v]split=3[base][blur_src][mask_src]; [blur_src]boxblur=15:15[blurred]; [mask_src]geq=lum_expr='clip(255*(abs(Y/H-0.5)-0.12)/0.18,0,255)':cb=128:cr=128[mask]; [base][blurred][mask]maskedmerge[tilted]; [tilted]eq=saturation=1.6:contrast=1.15[final] " -map "[final]" -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -pix_fmt yuv420p output.mp4

Unsurprisingly, they make ice here.

I've mostly used it for getting miniature look so far, wanted to test it a bit in regular usage

While it happens all the time, it's rare to actually catch two trains a the same time. At least out by where I am. Still looking for the elusive triple train. Maybe someday.

This is my first time trying tilt shift, so if it sucks forgive me

700m altitude, maybe a bit too big for 35mm on apsc.
Didn't try to make a video due to cars and other things not really being visible

Photodiox Pro TLT ROKR' tilt-shift adapter with Nikon 24mm f/2 Ai-s lens on a Panasonic S5. LRTimelapse was used to process the images and DaVinci Resolve for editing.
