I don't think so. Going back to a conversation Shel and I had a short while ago about tilted horizons, I find that when I frame certain relatively dynamic subjects the horizon is not straight. This is because I'm concentrating on the subject and the action, trying to show what that is about. If communicating the action successfully means the horizon has to be tilted, so be it. Ditto for fences. Bob "What tilt?" ---Gary Winogrand -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
