Imperfections from wide angle lens use can be corrected in the Filter section.
For example, the Adaptive Wide Angle filter allows you to correct distorted
horizontal and vertical planes, and Lens Correction uses the manufacturer's
camera and lens data to correct geometric distortion, vignetting, and chro-
matic aberrations.
Changing Focus
The eye is naturally drawn to areas that are in sharp focus. You can use this fact
to draw the viewer's attention to the area of interest in a photo by narrowing
depth of field. In the following steps you will draw attention to the middle ground
by selectively defocusing (blurring) the foreground and background. Photoshop
CS6 has a new blur filter called Tilt-Shift that makes changing focus a snap.
