If you’re using a smart phone’s camera, you have to be wary that because of the size of the camera lens, you’re going to get a lot of distortion. Instagram doesn’t let you fix that.
Before: Auto Warp Distortion
After: Adjusted in Photoshop CS2
So I had to use a combination of Spherize and Warp tools in Photoshop CS2 to get it looking somewhat like me. I know I’m not that pudgy. The ideal is to match how your eyes see yourself in the mirror.
I know after tinkering with it in Photoshop, it made my forehead longer, but it looks closer to reality at least.
