[QUOTE="hark, post: 372205, member: 13196"] If I remember correctly, I took these photos around October 6th. The leaves hadn't changed much, and overall I wasn't too happy with what I shot that day. After editing a few photos, my laptop was almost completely filled with files and photos so I needed to remove a lot of items. I thought I backed these up, but somehow I accidentally skipped the folder with these images and deleted them altogether. :( So I pulled these from my Facebook profile. Sorry...I don't think the EXIF will show up. After reading @[URL="http://nikonites.com/member-9240-backdoorhippie.html"]BackdoorHippie[/URL]'s thread about correcting perspective distortion, I tackled editing these a second time. If Jake would let me know how I did, I'd really appreciate his constructive criticism. First you will see the original edited photo followed by its corrected perspective distortion photo. All constructive criticism will be appreciated, but because Jake can spot even the tiniest flaw, I will be all ears. :) Camera: Nikon D610 Lens: Nikon 18-35mm f/3.5-4.5 Original photo of Bowman's Tower with the starburst of the sun. I remember using a very small aperture but can't recall the exact setting. My intent was to get the sun to show up as a starburst. [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]120963._xfImport[/ATTACH] Below I corrected the perspective distortion while trying to keep as much of the starburst intact.
