I use two wonderful tools in the Edit menu of Photoshop. One is Edit>Transform>Warp and then the other is Edit>Transform>Distort, both of which can easily be used to correct keystoning, warped lines, etc, etc!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04997074478049640632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8015616354709645336.post-29688580045001135912011-01-11T20:12:11.630-05:002011-01-11T20:12:11.630-05:00My favorite lens too, Cindy.

I think the first one is a real departure too--it just kind of occurred to me the other day--actually, the reason I've never taken that particular perspective of the lighthouse is that there are several signs posted around there that say KEEP OFF THE GRASS! I figured since it was dead for the season, it might be okay! Yes, I don't like overdone HDR either, but sometimes HDR really works if you keep it somewhat subtle. . .Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04997074478049640632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8015616354709645336.post-46024798321871976782011-01-11T14:26:36.772-05:002011-01-11T14:26:36.772-05:00I think the first and third images are absolutely ...I think the first and third images are absolutely stunning! The first is a departure for you, compositionally. And I think it brings an excellent freshness to your shots of this subject.<br /><br />I've mentioned before that I am not too keen on HDRs, but it is photos like these that are bringing me around. Very nicely done.Nikhilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00432795193666339712noreply@blogger.com
