Scope & contentPhotographs taken to complement the Christmas 2012 series, covering omissions and changes to buildings.
Taken with a Fujifilm FinePix S1000fd on its default setting; original images were 3648 x 2736 pixels. When it was realised that the pictures suffered from barrel distortion, Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 was used to compensate for this; it was not a complete success, as the distortion was erratic.
The opportunity was also taken to have all verticals on the front of a building also vertical in the pictures; pixel counts differ, depending on the degree of compensation used. Correction for barrel distortion alone reduces image size to about 3540 x 2600.
The modified images have an A suffix.
In pictures taken square to the face of a building, horizontals have been made horizontal and parallel.
Organisation & ArrangementTitled so as to present each side of a street in sequence.
