Thanks for your comment! I will straiten the horizon and I will to some other tests with the photo. Caro amigo, caro amigo ? but looking like stupid photographer for shooting a crooked picture!! You must straighten these slight tilts, other wise you make yourself look foolish in handling and printing your photographs!? Too much adjectives for my taste but I tend do agree with you!

But when you make the print you straighten it! That is a basic rule of photography! What you have now in both of these rather fine photographs because the horizon is crooked/tilted are two spoiled photographs. The first thing a viewer sees looking at these photographs isn't the beauty of the picture...........they see .... the horizon is crooked! Period! And you are seen as a poor photographer because you shot it this way! If you had fixed it no one would ever know you didn't hold the camera straight ! >> I notice but I decide not to edit the photos. They are exactly how they >> came out of the camera.<<<<<< No no mon ami, this is nonsense at it's best! Because you are making yourself look, not as a wonderful talented photographer, but looking like stupid photographer for shooting a crooked picture!! You must straighten these slight tilts, other wise you make yourself look foolish in handling and printing your photographs! ted _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
