In Photoshop, there is a "Rotate Canvas" command under the "Image" memu. I selected the "Rotate Arbitrary" setting and set it to 1.5 degrees counter clockwise. Then I cropped.

Don't you use the 'measure tool' to ascertain the exact tilt adjustment needed?

The way I do it is :-

1) Select the measure tool (which is in the same group as the eye dropper (screenshot attached)

2) using the measure tool - draw along a definite horizontal or vertical

3) go to Image/Rotate/Arbitrary .... and you'll find the precise figure has already been entered for you, courtesy of the measure tool which has calculated it from the line you drew.

It's a neat, quick and easy way to straighten a horizon too.

I'm attaching a screenshot of one of my own images as I forgot to save a copy of Shawn's for the screenshot. Super shot though Shawn, well suited to sepia and the post processing .. and I also love the 'Memphis' series. All very fascinating for me as I remember the Luther King shooting and Elvis, of course (wot with me being so ancient).
