Chuck, Jeff and the Oly gang:
Thanks for the comments. I this perspective stuff is as much art as
science in real life. :-)
I'm really most interested in the scale of the couple vs. the building,
and the light. But I'd like the "architectural correctness" of the
picture to be acceptable. So I reworked the leveling and keystoning
correction again, and I *think* I like it better this way. But I've been
staring at it so long that I wouldn't know a straight line if it bit me
where I sit. :-)
So, which one do you like better?
