The photo obviously speaks to you and has deep meaning for you, so for that reason alone, it is a good photograph. I have used the tilt shift effect humorously when I've taken photos where buildings or people happen to be tiny and by fading out the background and foreground make them look like they belong on a miniature train set.
yes! I have a pretty healthy sense of humor and am a curious person by nature. I also love kids, their world is full of miniatures and colorful. I think this effect sparks that a little for me.
