I'm absolutely USELESS with Photoshop and desperately need a genius to help me out!

I've been told that what I'm wanting to do is either impossible or very very time consuming, which I don't mind as long as it works!

I basically need to straighten just one wall in some pictures of a model I made. I've attached an example of one of the images I need to do this to.

As you can see, the left wall is completely crooked, how can I straighten it or at least make it appear straight without destroying the photo??

HELP!

Alex

Select the wall (I used the pen tool). Copy and paste to a new layer. Edit-transform-distort.

It only took about a minute.

Hi!

Thanks so much for your quick response!

I've now tried that and I've been spot healing the shading to get rid of the layers but it looks quite blotchy...is there a way around this?

I have been using the transform tool to create the straight wall but now I just can't seem to replicate a natural shadow. Is there a gradient tool I can use to help me do this? Or, any other suggestions?
