Re: PESO: Cityscape in mixed media
I'm glad you said that, Brian. I struggled with that issue before posting the image. At first, I rotated the image to make the building lines vertical, but that through the blue fence out of horizontal, and it looked worse (to my eye). Then, I tried perspective adjustment in Photo Shop, but that squashed the buildings a bit too much, so I went back to the original. I think that I will start all over, and try a little perspective adjustment, a little rotation and a little cropping to see if I can get a balance between keeping the vertical lines vertical, the horizontal lines horizontal, and the building proportions close to reality. Thanks for looking and commenting. Dan I think that On Wed, Jul 28, 2010 at 8:58 AM, Brian Walters wrote: > On Tue, 27 Jul 2010 14:37 -0400, "Daniel J.
