The horizon bugged me too but that's the way it is. It is not
really a horizon, it is a shore line and if they curve toward you or
away from you they will not be level. If I had leveled the horizon,
the people would have been leaning. Which is preferable? This
horizon thing is like people always wanting snow to be white. It
isn't that way visually in nature, if you look at it carefully, so
why should it be in a photo?
I'm sorry, I've seen my share of shorelines coming at an angle and
that one is definitely tilted as badly as mine is!
;-)
I just rotated the photo until the shoreline was level and I have to
say that I stand most humbly corrected. The people still look
upright. I hadn't expected that but hadn't tried the correction
either. Thanks for the lesson I was forced to learn. Never too
old, right?
