I really like some of the new features in Photoshop CS6, it seems like when you think Adobe can’t make Photoshop any better, they do. I have found the Adaptive Wide Angle filter very useful for a lot of my images of architecture, both interiors and exteriors. Since I don’t own a tilt-shift lens, my photos of architecture end up with converging walls and tilted buildings because the lens isn’t level vertically and horizontally. In the past I used the Lens correction feature, the Transform tool and Puppet Warp, to correct the horizontal and vertical issues, but those didn’t always work out as well as I would have liked. With the new adaptive wide angle filter, it’s very easy to fix all of those issues.
Check out the video where I go through how to correct an image of a church in Budapest using this great new feature. This is my first video tutorial, so I’d like some feedback for future videos.

This photo of the Palouse, in Eastern Washington really stands out for me. A couple of my photography friends from L.A. (Linda I’Anson, Scott Stulberg […]
I recently attended a photography workshop in Death Valley lead by Scott Stulberg http://asa100.com and Jennifer Wu http://jenniferwu.com/. On Saturday evening, just before we were going to head out to Rhyolite, a ghost town near the Nevada border, a thunderstorm rolled in. Of course being photographers we saw lots of photo opportunities, one of them […]
