Partially corrected for pincushion distortion from using 18mm wide-angle lens using PS

The House of Seven Gables is in Salem, MA. They moved it from its original location to right on the waterfront, a few blocks north of the old customs house, where the Friendship II is moored.

.The black paint really makes it look sinister. It has been completely restored. Regular tours take you through sone of the hidden passageways, while providing lots of colorful background.

Enjoy.

What a wonderful house and garden. I even like the look of the drain pipe. They sure keep this place looking good. Where is it, Don? Maybe I might go and see it. A wonderful, clear post. Thanks for uploading this.

Don, this is a wonderful image. The way you've corrected it for pincushion disortion is great to me. I like to use this opportunity as well to say a big 'Thank you' to you, for taking the time to show me the possibilities and giving me advice in order to enhance my disorted 'Middelburg Townhall' image. Highly appreciated by me my friend!
Regards, Cornelius
