Dear Mr. Meier ,

Could you enlighten me what the skew control means.
Where to start from ..

Yours sincerely

Linda

Steve,
No, what I did was to use the Skew control to straighten each side of the picture individually. Didn't use rotate or cropping at all.

thanks Bob... I believe I see correctly what you did....I see an image rotated slightly clockwise, thus cropped slightly on the left, and the line of the buildings on the left is rotated to the vertical...
it is a small adjustment ..an improvement, and the bridges are rotated as well slightly to the horizontal.. though the unusual perspective is such that I am not sure the bridges actually then appeared horizontal, from the angle it was shot...
there sure are a lot of lines in this image, but I think that is part of why it's interesting... 

but for me it's the two people that make the shot..
I thank you, Ted Grant for being so persnickety, and the ghost of Sandy Carter lurking in the background, as well... 


much appreciated,

Steve
