I dont know if that is distortion or tilt, but the tower part should be straight up and down, no?

Other than that, I love it. I wouldnt mind seeing MORE of the creepy graves.

Thanks Parker. It's actually much more plumb then the distortion on the original, but I do seem to be having some issues getting my verticals, vertical. If you have a few minutes, would you mind truing it up so I can see the difference,

^ Wish I could, but I don't have the software for that.

Quick-and-dirty, and it looks like I might have overshot a little bit

It has a small amount of prospective distinction.

Thanks Scott, That tower's gone back and forth more then in an earthquake today. I had several like this. :lol:

Good exposure, everything is nicely focused, from the gravestones to the clouds. Pretty church too. Love the stone work and symmetry of the windows. Agree a bit more of the stones would have been interesting, but that may be a different shot!

I like that you included the headstones in the shot. It is a piece of its church history. The clouds add to the photo too. My only suggestion would be to clone out the small sign in front of the bushes.

Not from where i sit LOL Maybe it was meant to have a slight lean ...... I like it anyway.

Rick58 · Mar 31, 2013

I don't get it. I've done PC on a lot of my stuff but I'll be darn if I can plumb up this thing. Back to the drawing board. It's funny because the main body of the church appears square
