- Learn how to use the Perspective Warp tool in Photoshop. This incredible tool was designed for architecture, but with a couple quick tricks, you can use it to dramatically enhance your landscape images. Use it to compensate (creatively) for wide-angle distortions, such as small subjects, or just for creative effect. You can be as subtle or dramatic as you like.
See my blog for more details on how you can use this technique in your landscape photos: gregbenzphotography.com/photo...

This was so helpful. So glad to learn about the blue and yellow lines. Thank you!
Absolutely love this guide & the scene
Very cool! Thanks for sharing this one again!
Very impressive result! This will go straight to my saved videos.
Thank You for this Greg!
Thanks for this helpful tutorial. You're brilliant at teaching & very generous to share your knowledge.
Doug Sturgess thanks, Doug!
Great example and lesson. Thanks Greg.
THANK YOU! A tutorail on PW that made sense!
Great tutorial, Greg!
Greg...I've watched a few tutorials on Perspective Warp and yours is BY FAR the most complete and illustrative. I routinely shoot with a 16-35mm lens and use Perspective Warp all the time, however you have given me a few new twists on my production flow - Thanks.
Rick Valasek sweet, looking forward to seeing what you do with it!
Awesome. Thanks so much, Greg.
another great video!
Great tip! Thank you!
Awesome Greg. I've used the tool on architecture but not so much for landscapes. I've seen a tutorial from Ted Gore similar to this where he changed the perspective of a mountain. Works well. Thanks for the tutorial and that image is excellent!
Wow! Watched this and thought it was awesome. Saw right away that one day, it would come in handy. Just trying to flatten out a silhouetted hill on a milky-way shot and knew this was the time. Re-watched the wonderful tutorial and yep, worked PERFECTLY.
Thank you Greg!
Great!
wow!!! I'm totally speechless!! This is a breathtaking tool!! I Have always used the normal warp tool in combination with the rectangular marque tool. But this method is so much better and also great to correct some issues from a wide angle lens at the edges. Looking forward to learning more at you channel :) greetings from Austria
Thanks, Lukas!
Thank you so much, this tutorial help me a lot ^^
Phenomenal!
WoW ......... and this is why I look for new things on youtube in Photoshop... Thanks.... you got a new sub
+George Rosema great, thanks!
Thank you so much! Really helpful tip! :)
excellent video Greg, not a tool I have ever utilized before!
Nick Page yeah, it's a bit outside intended use, but Perspective Warp is awesome for landscapes!
What a tip! Thanks so much!
Awesome! Thanks!
Hi, I like to thank you for this video tutorial. I was working on a composition and I was looking at using the pupped wrap but an then I saw Prospective Wrap and I right away look into Ps Help and your video was the first thing that shows up. Once again, thank you. -Jorge Tampa,FL
very well done. thank you.
Excellent tutorial! Have used this tool for buildings but never thought to use it on features in my landscapes. And while I'm here, I want to let you know how much I really love using Lumenzia. I'm using it on just about every image that I process now. Great work Greg - thanks!
That's amazing, thanks!
Excellent!
Brilliant
LOVE IT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!!
+Aurora Pintore great, thanks!
Nice tip, thanks!
Thank you very much!
Very cool Greg...thanks for the time and energy you spend producing these tutorials. I would love more examples start to finish of your use of Lumenzia on blending multiple exposures. I enjoyed seeing Shift+click shortcut to combine the Group-combine commands that I suggested...I appreciate your openness to suggestions.
Brian Divelbiss of course, thanks for the feedback!
gr8 tutorial. tnx :) Subscribed!
I usually just warp what I want to change on a duplicate layer and then blend it in with a simple mask.
Works well most of the times, unless a smooth blend is stupidly hard to achieve, and won't warp anything else except the object you want to transform.
I will try your technique too!
Good channel keep it up
Federico Melis thanks!
very useful.
Great video. This is one use i never thought about. However make sure you don't use PS 22.3.1. Because it won't work due to a BUG ...
Great use of the photoshop tools!
I thought you were going to move the clouds as well. Great shot.
I did before the video started, in a sense. I resized my sky layer, because the composition was actually quite a bit different than the wave images. I didn't do anything fancy though, just simple transform tools to make it reach the edge and avoid any sky gaps.
This method was new to me and it really works wonder in countering wide angle distortions. Until now I have used regular warping or the Liquefy tool, but Perspective warp truly opens up new doors. Great video with clear and easy to understand instructions and perfect pace - not too slow and not too fast.
Ole Henrik Skjelstad thanks, love your work!
Thanks a lot, Greg!
This is so,so useful done a few trips to the Scottish highlands over the last few months,using my Nikon 14/24 on a D810 the foreground interest is all tip top, then the mountains in the background look like you could probably run and jump over them because they look so small...
Sounds like an amazing trip, can't wait to go there some day! Glad it's so timely for your work.
Cool
Thank you for this amazing tutorial. Just one question though... isn't this kind of adjusts affecting the picture quality like sharpness?
No, this would not affect sharpness.
Awesome technique, thank you!
Only bummer is how much softening and interpolation gets added to the images, handicapping a quality enlargement. Maybe one day AI will be able to overcome that.
I haven’t tried it, but you could enlarge the image, use this technique, and then downsize. May produce a better quality result when lots of warping is needed when you take control of the interpolation that’s way. Or just add a little faux detail/texture locally.
Greg Benz Thank you. I agree. But they do take a BIG hit for big enlargements.
I just had to do this for a client this week. A 72 inch amazing fine art gallery print. After perspective corrections it could not be 72inches anymore. A questionable 60, and at 45 and 36 it started to have the definition the original 72 had. This is using every trick in the book and then some.
Makes sense. Stretching pixels is the same as additional enlargement - it uses less original pixels per inch in the final output. Doesn't take much in a small area to push it beyond the limits of the file.
Hi Greg, great tutorial but I can’t find the Layout and Warp buttons along the top. Have tried resetting tools but still not there. … any ideas?
Window / Options in PS to see tool options.
Thanks Greg, that was quick. Options is on. I have all the other 6 tools to the right of where the warp button is in your tutorial and the button with the 3 vertical lines to the left of the layout button, but no layout or warp button on PS 2023, 2024 or the Beta.
@heatherflint4673 I’d contact Adobe
how can I countor a computer circuit board over a human face, so that as a result I can see the transparency of the face under the circuit biard, I hope that some one understand what I mean. Thanks
Imar DaCunha reduce opacity of the top layer.
