The lighthouse and horizon are actually straight or "level" its just the angle that makes them appear that way!! the lighthouse sits on a pier that starts out straight and then angles to the left. Here is a diffrent view of it and the corner or"turn" is where it takes on the look of being off...
This Pair of Mallards decided that my Koi Pond was a good stop over on their migration and they have been here for a couple days now. The problem is that I was cleaning out the pond with half the water drained my poor koi are terrified that they are about to become dinner!!!
I Love Chicago!!! You have some great shots here for sure. The L stairs are Great, and the person sleeping in the doorway is Very nice. Unfortunatly its a common site these days and it is sad, but it is still A good shot.
Thanks Corinna, Sad to say that it was on macro, but I don't use the setting much and thought I would give it a try. at least I know what a soft photo means now. I have seen it on other's photos on the forum but did not really understand it until you explained it here. I am working on it though...
I am just not sure if I like it better with original colors or cropped with b&w and some tint adjustment..any suggestions??
