Read here! https://www.photoshopgurus.com/forum...ive-too.63905/ I've always thought that Photoshop is for 'professionals', not for everyday 'home users' like me. it is. there is a consumer version, however, called photoshop elements. you don't need either one. OK Is it something that would make a world of difference over the facilities now included with Apple's 'Photos' software? it would if you know how to use it. otherwise, hell no. I'm not sure that I want to do it .... but I might! I did once experiment with GIMP on my old iMac but found it rather complicated to use. Perhaps it's an age thing! ;-) nope. it's that the gimp is poorly designed, with no attention paid to ui/ux. You do come out with interesting comments sometimes! ;-) Don't pay any attention to nospam. He's never helpful, and just hangs around here to argue with anything said. He doesn't have the talent to do anything himself, so he puts others down. We don't even know if he does any photography. nothing more than ad hominem attacks. The truth hurts, hunh? The truth shall set you free! -- teleportation kills |

To me it looks more like the photograph had been re-photographed with the original print not flat. I did write in my original reply that the file was useless, or next to. There seem to be some crummy shutter roll in it. The picture seem to be torn like a less successful pano can. I think that the soft does that that most iPhotogs crave! :-)) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_shutter -- teleportation kills |
