@1:42/8:29, I love the Vanishing Point placed to the upper left of the image...You cannot help but to notice the directions of these vanishing points; The Cathedral's vanishing point is scrumptious... Mark, Thanks for a great video as always!

Mark - Many thanks for your great informative videos - and thanks to Adorama for making it possible. I just returned from a trip along coastal Maine. Using many of the tips that I have learned from your videos over the years, I must say that the photos are my best yet. And making a photo book with Adoramapix is a blast. The photo book making software is the best and most intuitive that I have found so far! Great job Adorama!
