Washington - Gaylord Resort 02

The huge glass wall, plus the domed glass roof over the atrium, made for some good picture taking from our third-floor balcony. This fellow was obviously headed to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport with passengers and crew. Had to do more touch-up than one might think for this shot. The pane borders made it obvious that lens distortion had to be fixed, then the image was rotated so that the bottom of the pane under the jetliner looked more/less horizontal. These vacation shots were all taken with the Fujifilm s7000, but now that I own a Big Rig with interchangeable lenses (which I don't plan to interchange, at least for now), my understanding is that with Photoshop CS4 all you have to do is enter the lens used for a shot and the distortion adjustment is automatic. Hope so...
