This is the barn that i was talking about.
I don't remember it leaning in person!!

If you are able to adjust it, will you please tell me how to do it in PS CS?

Thanks!



 
Select All > Edit Transform> Perspective ... Pull/Push in Top/Bottom until straight. Nice shot ...

Combination of Lens distortion correction under the Filter> Distort menu, and then used Transform> warp tool to correct the rest.

Wiz,

I like to use the Lens Correction tool when correcting some of these, but it appears to my eyes at least that it also distorts the image quality substantially. What do you think??

Realizing that when using the warp tool, distort tool or any other type of "stretching" tool, like the liquify tool also, you will lose some image quality and sharpeness I guess.

Thanks though Wiz. Just goes to show that Photoshop allows many ways to do things and it is good to try them all.

You must live in the country somewhere. Are emergency personnel really that slow? LOL

I had not noticed ... but I checked your image against the original and you are absolutely correct. It shows the most in the branches of the tree closest to the barn ... which is also the center of the image. Interesting.

Yep! Logical I guess because of the distorting of pixels. Some of it is in the uploading of the image to pbase also I think. But I am not sure I would sacrifice the image quality all of the time just to correct some slight barrel distortion.

Conrad... Looks like in your version the very LH side of the barn fell OOF... May be just my fading eyes but it really looks like a drop in quality there.
