changing angle of the picture

Post by Mowi »

Hello,

My pictures are taken with the wrong angle. The picture is of a side taken but it had to be taken above the subject. Now one side of the trousers is longer than the other side. See the attachement. How can I correct this?

Thank you for your advice.

Ingrid

You could try the perspective correction tool. I'm probably way off on this but it's the only thing I can think of. It will of course stretch the whole image but you can do some manual resizing afterward to get it looking less stretched out.

The straighten tool just rotates the image so that's no good. It'll just end up looking crooked.

You could do your own warp of the one leg using the free-form transform of the image using the Pick Tool. Perspective correction is more automated but if you wanted to nudge it until it looked right to you that might work.

You could use the Mesh Warp tool to nudge the legs into alignment, there is some stretching involved but it's restrained to the proper leg and not to the whole image.

The warp brush is another option. But I think for this the mesh works better than the brush.



Here's the result after a very quick and dirty attempt using the tool, I didn't look to make sure the nodes were set in the right locations at all. So it does end up looking stretched out....but that may also just end up being a result of using this tool period on this type of image. May need to do some extra warping to get it back in shape. So my method stinks.

I also have a small tutorial on this tool....though it's probably not necessary as it's pretty simple: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOydrWAIAco

You can find tutorials on the other tools I mentioned there as well.

But that's all I can think of. Maybe the more experienced people have better well thought out ideas. :D
