Correcting perspective distortions
You can correct perspective distortions in photos that have straight lines and flat surfaces such as architectural photos and photos of
buildings.
Perspective distortions usually occur when you take pictures of tall or wide objects, and the camera sensor is at an angle to the objects. As a
result, the photographed objects may appear to be leaning or to be at an angle. Adjusting the vertical perspective helps straighten leaning
objects; adjusting the horizontal perspective helps with angled objects. Often, you may need to adjust both the vertical and horizontal
perspectives for best results.

be leaning backwards, move the slider to the left. Tall buildings in
photos usually appear to be leaning back when the picture is taken
from the ground.
Correct the horizontal perspective Move the Horizontal perspective slider. If the photo was taken
with the camera to the right of the object, move the slider to the
left.
