It is level...it's the slope of the shoreline where it meets the waterline
 
Good eye, nice pic! But, could you add a bird to that feather? lol! Kidding.

Not sure what kind of bird it was, and though it is quite unusual to see, this is a juvenile Black Crowned Night Heron fishing in the Gulf of Mexico

I've looked at this one several times and really like it, but there's something that keeps nagging me that it needs something. Maybe it's the impression of being unlevel, that makes me want to tilt the monitor. Sometimes when we don't have other elements to put a scene in perspective the mind assumes. It might also be the framing, maybe a square crop? I dunno???
 
I know what you're saying, but leveling it would take the two juxtaposing diagonals out of the composition...and thus, at least for me, kill the image impact. Images like this are always hard to see out of context but I thought it was a pretty neat image, so I made the shot. Thanks for your input.

No disagreement on this! Neat might be an understatement. Have you tried a square crop?

I crop a lot of pictures that way just to have a complete reflection in them. I would've done the same thing.
 
I've done square crops before and still on this one, feel it needs the space to ease out of the frame.
