Sometimes you find a picture that isn't even square, but has potential for some fun improvements. This isn't a big problem for Photoshop since the program allows you to skew it back to its original shape. I found a picture of a card for sale on eBay and decided to play around with it:
Vintage Lucille Ball I Love Lucy Postcard 5" X 7" California Here We Come (Aired January 10, 1955)
Using 'perspective' and 'skew' in 'Transform mode' I forced it square again and with layer masks and 'levels' I removed some annoying camera glare.
Although I continued on, and turned the old classic into a sort of movie poster pic. It's okay but I think sometimes old black and whites are best left as black and whites. What do you think?
