This is a great technique, I first observed it in the photos of a friend of mine who is a amateur photographer and has a very good camera, it looks absolutely amazing, much more interesting than any fake 3d or stuff like that. Wish I had a better camera and I would try it immediately aswell… oh well, one day…
