I think that I'm going to need to do this in Photoshop but wondered if I can achieve accurate crop in Lightroom. I'd like to create a diptych with the two photos attached. It's a small section of a yacht rudder shot from each side. I have tried by eye to get the size of the brass section the same but want to get it precise. I cannot see a way of doing this, other than counting squares of the overlay!
I'd like to have shown a mock up, but PS has decided to mess me about & can't rectify as yet. It creates black file when I specified white background. Then when I pasted files on this, they didn't show...
So unless I can measure in LR, I think that I'm going to have to paste one image onto a layer in master file in PS, then the other on another layer, which I then overlay and use Transform commands to get it right, then crop then position it.
Idea is to have the files opposite way round from how they appear here i.e. brass sections on the outside.
If the LR measuring is a non-starter, am happy to listen & learn any more PS elegant methods!
Many thanks
