Here in Australia we have a fasination with all things big. On a recent trip (where I picked up the Canon 10-22mm) I captured this image on the return trip from Adelaide to Melbourne. Is it my eyesight or does the image seem to bow in from the center to the edges? if so, what is the best way to correct this (I am using CS2 for my PP). Comments and tips always welcome. http://photobucket.com/albums/v127/dwclifford/Adelaide%20Dec%204-8%202005/?action=view&current=0286.jpg I can not seem to able to attach the image into my thread, so I have just put up the link for now. Thanks for stopping by.
Cheers

    Try the "Lens Correction" filter under Filter > Distort > Lens Correction.

    David,

    There seems to be a slight upward bow to the roadway.




    You can correct this with PS2 by the following:
    >Select >All
    >Edit >Transform >Warp


    Then place your pointer in the image somewhere near the bottom and centered from left to right. Then pull down until the line of the roadway is corrected.

    Hope this helps.

    Sorry, Andyman, I was typing mine while you were posting yours.

    Tassie, both methods are very similar and either will work.
