Daguerreotype and Tilt-Shift

Daguerreotype
This photo is a Daguerreotype.  Daguerreotype was the first commercially successful photographic process.  It was invented around 1837.  Part of the process was transferring the photo to a metal plate.  I tried to recreate this process by adding concrete textures over the photo to add some roughness.

Tilt-Shift
 This is a tilt-shift photo.  It was taken in downtown Portland, OR. I took it from the top of a parking garage.
Daguerreotype
This is another Daguerreotype photo that I took.  I took it again from the top of a parking garage looking across at this old building.
