[Leica] IMG: Saturday Snags

[rgacpa at yahoo.com (Bob Adler)]

Hi Jim,


The first image, "Snag View", which is where the link in my original email 
takes you to, has no distortion, tilted verticals or otherwise, that I can 
discern; the two dead trees were tilted toward the center of the image. I 
may have had the lens pointed a bit downward, but at almost level and 50mm, 
it's pretty close to what it looked like. The "Snag Silhouette" was up a 
cliff about 50m, so there must be some distortion in there. Not much I can 
do for that one..

The last two images in the series definitely have perspective distortion. 
I've "fixed" this as best as possible for these 2 images. Better? (I left 
the original postings next to them).


Thanks very much for the feedback. Let me know if I'm understanding you 
correctly and if you think the changes are better or worse or the image 
should be edited out...
Best,

Bob,

I detect what appear to be tilted verticals in the first two images of the 
series, and what I would call perspective distortion in the final image, 
where the trees appear to converge toward the center.  Maybe its just me.
