Hi Big Pix,

thanks for that tip you gave in the "help with distortion" thread.
It is very easy to apply and very powerful.
I have added a image of a ring that I transformed using this technique.

This smacks of art deco and IMO is a superlative shot :)

A wonderful image. Is teh black part out of the camera or is this a photo montage of some kind? I guess what I mean is the original shot just the bottom wedge. Regardless I like though.

Hi Stubbsy,

I have tried to illustrate how I arrived at the distorted image.
Click on images below to see larger ones.

You can see below the original image on the left hand side of the screen,
then the distorted image on the right hand side of the screen:

Image

The process is: select all, edit, transform, perspective.
You select a corner of the image and drag it to where ever you like:

Image

End result of a different transformation (distortion):

Hope this helps,
