Less wide.

How does this correction look? Not sure if it's worth it to correct the distortion of the building here--your thought?

I started over to refresh and follow the tutorial step-by-step. I entered "control T." First, I rotated it slightly so that the horizontal brickwork was, in fact, horizontal:" When I line up a building line, the one below the main subject's head: the lines higher on the building; the "horizon" at the spectators' feet; and the curb close to me are not straight. OR, best to refer to your second example photo (I will try this now): For the sake of the exercise, I used the Perspective and Skew functions to do this:

(The line of the feet in the background was not accurate, nor were the lines on the building.) Shot at 20 mm. 2. Using the scale, how to "stretch" the stubbiness of the people, namely the tall Nigerian guy to the right? I've pulled at the different handles with no result. Yes, I need more practice with this. SOOR photo for reference:

Thank you. I'll give it a go.

Damien, Any suggestion for "haze" from shooting against a metal fence? Attached is a screenshot of the photo after the RAW PROCESSING WORKFLOW. Camera info: ISO 200; 70-200mm @100mm; f/4.5; 1/800s I can't see the specific fence lines, so I am unable to: 1. use a brush to "dehaze," per the YouTube. 2. clone, per your response in this forum about fences. Thank you in advance for any advice you can offer. Yes, I will be retaking your levels class in the near future to get back to editing photos.

Brian, Is the price difference due to the QHD in the Dell UltraSharp U2722DE? I need to upgrade my screen. When I compare the Dell UltraSharp U2722DE to this one https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1797711-REG/dell_u2724d_ultrasharp_27_60hz_ips.html/specs I see a significant price difference. I value your opinion re: a) yes, buy for the future; or b) it's unnecessary to spend $500+. I do Photoshop and light Premiere. Also, please advise where to send donation. I'm not clear if I use the general "Donate" button below. Thank you.

Thank you so much. That's a huge help. BTW, I appreciate your "build for the future" advice. My current system has lasted me 9 years, so well worth the investment.

Brian, I saw where you recommended NOT getting these video cards. Is that still accurate? Also, any insights you can give me to the specs of these two systems is appreciated. I have not talked to this company yet as I'm still shopping around. I've been reading your articles for several months now and need to purchase asap. My current PC is on its tenth year and is just too slow to handle Photoshop.
