A REAL Small Town: Rochester Miniatures

August 27th, 2009

A few weeks ago we showed you an amazing model railroad in Hamburg Germany called Miniature Wunderland. After we posted that story, let’s just say we were inspired.

May I present to you… Rochester Miniatures…

A miniature scale model of the Rochester Aqueduct... seriously??
Downtown Rochester, NY with Genesee Aqueduct

Is this the smallest skyscraper in world? Xerox Tower?
Xerox Tower and Bausch & Lomb Headquarters (Downtown Rochester)

An itsy-bitsy University of Rochester campus?

A teeny-weeny George Eastman House?
East Avenue with the George Eastman House

Not fooled? You caught us. These aren’t actually pictures of teeny weeny scale models… they are real aerial photographs of Rochester with a photographic technique known as “tilt-shift” applied to them. Got a camera and a copy of Photoshop? Check out this Photoshop tutorialexternal link and give it a try. We’d love to see what you come up with.
