02 Correct wonky perspective in your shot with the Upright command
Straighten converging verticals caused by perspectival distortion using Lightroom’s powerful Upright command
Make a manual correction
1 Take lens_distortion.dng into the Develop module. Toggle open the Lens Corrections panel and click Manual. Drag Vertical to -69 to make the vertical lines run more parallel with the frame edges. However, this loses detail at the top of the frame and adds white areas to the bottom.
Make a profile
3 Click the Reset button, then click the Lens Corrections panel’s Profile tab. Tick Enable Profile Corrections. Set Make to Nikon. This profile counteracts vignetting and subtle barrel or pincushion distortions (as we saw on the previous page).It can also help to fix perspectival distortion.
Crop the edges
2 You can remove the white edges by dragging Scale to the right, but this will remove the top of the building. By clicking Constrain Crop you can remove the unwanted white edges while preserving the top of the house. Manual adjustments are effective, but there’s a better technique.
Automatic correction
4 Go to the Lens Correction panel’s Basic tab. Tick the Upright section’s Auto button to automatically counteract tilted horizons and converging verticals. This correction produces smaller white edges and preserves more of the sky.Crop out the white corners manually.
