Tilt/Fix Horizons

We generally want  to make sure that our image is straight, especially when there are visible horizons, for example when at the beach or by water, where there is something that needs to be flat.

In Photoshop, we can tilt our photo in any direction. This may result in some of your image being cropped, unless you pair the tool with the Content Aware Crop tool (seen in a following lesson).

You can use the gridlines to line up horizons or even tree-trunks so they are straight.

Press  on your keyboard, or go to the crop tool. Click and hold a corner that you want to drag, then drag your pointer up or down to rotate/tilt the image.
