Some people have asked me how I do the perspective changes / perspective corrections when editing images, examples here, also here and many more. I have once written a small how-to which basically tells all: How to eliminate frequent perspective distortions in images. After some hours of practicing, e.g., with the freeware tool I use and recommend, you can do the same.


Below are some of my favourite self-shot images. More images, and more information about myself, is on my User Page in the German language Wikipedia (with quick-translation function to English, French, Spanish and Arabic).

A Russian chronograph watch Poljot Buran which I bought in 1990 on a flea market in Germany for about 90 Euros (100 German Marks then), when the future of Russia seemed wide open... This watch is manufactured on machines which were bought by the Soviet Union from Swiss watch companies. As a strange side aspect, the design is a copy of a German military watch, the "Tutima Fliegerchronograph" from World War II (!), an image of which is here and in the file description
