Miniature or real? you decide!

I found of few images on flickr which had a look as though they were of models of a city or a place and yet I could tell that the image was of a real place.  The depth of field in the image played tricks on the mind and made you see it as though it were a picture of a miniature model rather than the real thing.  So I decided to try to figure out how to do it.  The images below represent what I was able to do.  It was fairly easy and I love how they turned out!  Maybe I’ll do a whole series of images like these… perhaps including nudes…. hmmm….

More images with this effect can be seen on my flickr page!
