RE: GESO: Experiments With Faith
Very interesting. You should listen to Cotty about the horizontals. Anything particular about the horizontals? I am not sure what you mean. It could be that it's early in the morning here in India and I am a bit dense! More of them should be horizontal. Although it's also worth remembering what Garry Winogrand said about them.

While in real life sometimes horizons aren't straight, it's a convention in photography to have them straight. It just makes it easier on the eyes, and takes away a distraction that can ruin an otherwise good photo. Straightening them is done in post processing with rotate photo. Or one can just be more aware when shooting -- checking all a way around the frame to see that things are straight. BTW (By The Way), I also like the golden light on the train and the other busy, colorful shore shot someone else picked out. HTH (Hope that helps).
