One of the many wooden walkways at the Nisqually Delta Wildlife Preserve. Not really pleased with the crop here. I was shooting into the sun in the late afternoon and had to crop it off.

Sorry if it's a bit wide. I can fix that later.

Going to get one more in before the close.

Please, open it up and turn your screen brightness up. Not sure why it's so dark.

*edit* changed to a straightened version with slight edits. Still looks funny in the Attached Thumbnails window.

I think it needs to be straightened up a bit. It's just me personally...maybe a small bit of OCD with wanting things to be straight.

I do though really, really like the tracks for some reason. They draw my eye into the picture and for some reason they almost look like a reflection of themselves after the different colored switch area. I think the perspective on the tracks is perfect.

I am the same way, just didn't notice it was so bad on this. I guess I'm getting used to the fact that almost all pictures I take end up slightly crooked. I have to think something is tilted in my camera, as it still happens when I shoot on a level tripod.

Fixed the original post.

Me too. I often have to straighten my photos, and always in the same direction. Maybe I've got one leg longer than the other??

Same here actually. 90% of my photos are slightly rotated to the right. They are never rotated left. The amount they were rotated used to be really bad, but know I am more aware of it and correct it before I press the shutter.

I correct it before shooting and the tilt is still there. I know it's not me or my camera. I think it has something to do with the curvature of the earth. Perhaps it's a space/time thing. I'll ask a quantum physicist and get back to you.
