I'm not sure whether it's an optical illusion or what, but almost the very first thing I notice every time I look at the photo is that doesn't seem straight. When I rotate the image slightly anticlockwise, the apparent tilt is corrected and the picture looks straight. Does it not appear tilted to anyone else? If not, then it must just be me. 217.44.214.6 (talk) 19:25, 21 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the shadow and ivy is what I meant by the composition being off-balance. I do believe it is pretty much perfectly straight and centered. Jujutacular (talk) 13:47, 22 August 2014 (UTC)'[reply]
