Flickr Group Focus: Mini Ventnor

I’ve been particularly drawn towards those by Davevent who has recently been experimenting with some of the cooler Photoshop filters.

His use of ’tilt and shift’ have resulted in some bizarrely spooky renditions of Ventnor – making it look remarkedbly like a model village. Check out his site for other shots and special effects. The hdr treatment on the cascade makes it look like a postcard from long ago.

I’m also keen on the moody esplanade shot, but what a shame the Metropole is blocking the view of the terraces. Who knows what it’ll look like in a years time if the Mill Bay development gets planning permission at its current height.

Well done Davevent, hope you’re planning to enter the IWPOY competition.
