| Here's a neat way to straighten out a picture. I did the below for years until I learned this method. Takes a few seconds... and no trial and error.
Its a nice picture. To straighten out the top of the stage (I am assuming
that is what the circular structure with the columns and head frame is) a 1°
Clockwise rotation in Photoshop and then cutting off the white margins to get it
back to a rectilinear format should do the trick. Horizon shots with items in
the close foreground always seem to be a little crooked in my experience and
need a slight bit of manipulation in Photoshop.

Haven't had time to try it yet, but I think
part of the problem making
it funny-looking is that the camera was tilted
a bit (hand held for 5
shots, if I remember right). I almost
didn't think of using a panorama
to get me more width (and there's a bit
of trouble with the top of the
nearest fence post there at the right,
because it was too close and the
camera was just swung by
hand).
I've been taking pictures each late snow storm to post to appall
my
friends in warmer climates :-).
Thanks for the
comments!
