This amazing tilt-shift photography was the brainchild art student Serena Malyon. Using Photoshop, she manipulated the lighting and focus by blurring and sharpening certain parts of the photo to give it that realistic pop!
More examples here.

Re: Tilt shift photography
Throwing the background out of focus?
A wide f-stop will do that.

On a flat painting? LOL! 
Dales mate, the photograph which was shopped to look 3D is this one
"Prison Courtyard" By Van Gogh. F stop would have no effect whatsoever.

It was a commentary on how she used it on some of Van Gogh's works...
Sometimes it seems as though one has to cross the line just to figger out where it is

...sounds like she's claiming credit for it.

Re: Tilt shift photography
A wholly useless attempt to profit from a real master.
A cultural vampire. Pay her no attention. Her version is stealing and not very good anyway.

Re: Tilt shift photography
Stealing? How? In the way, say, van Cliburn steals from Chopin? These are paintings by old masters in the public domain, and she is putting her interpretation/spin on them, much as a performer does with music. It may be good, bad, or mediocre, but I hardly see it as "stealing", especially since the original is avaialable for all who seek to enjoy it without her particular interpretation.

Re: Tilt shift photography
What has she claimed (or does anyone else claim) that she has accomplished?
She added a bit of color to the closest figures. People were adding color to photographs before she was born. (Yes, I know that the original is not a photograph. Same point stands.)
She fuzzed out the figures further back. Too bad that the result does not look anything like what an observer on the scene would actually see.
She fucked up the background. Yeehah!
People who want to call themselves artists should consider producing art.

Reason is valuable only when it performs against the wordless physical background of the universe.
Re: Tilt shift photography
I think the way she's created a 3D effect out of the old masters is quite good, I don't think anyone has claimed she's produced great art.

Re: Tilt shift photography
Personally I don't think she's done very much, I just dispute that it is theft.
