Random pics at work after a very long day. I noticed these shots the day before when I left and was glad to be able to shoot them when it was really dark.
I'm using a Canon SX 50 and I'm having a hard time with leveling my shots. I can't tell if it's the shots I'm eyeballing or the ones when I use the level on the view finder that aren't straight.
Any advice would be welcome....

Night cityscapes are one of my loves and these are terrific. As far as leveling the shots I suggest that you stop drinking at least two hours before you go out to shoot. (only kidding)

Nice ones Karla. I find using the grid lines on my sx50's viewfinder and flip out screen no problem, especially of course on horizon's. on buildings and night shots where it is more difficult, I find using picassa's straitening tool useful.
Depending on the subject matter and the available lines, etc, I find that the grid lines plus the electronic level so wonders for me!
I like the face profile in the first knobby tree photo. Cool!

Thanks Doddy! I'll try using the grid lines and will definitely check out picassa :thumbup: :thumbup:

I think I'm trying too hard to try and watch the horizon with one eye and the camera screen with the other. Thanks for the tips!
