The Grand Tetons

Grand Tetons. Saw this fence while traveling - 70~200 - 70mm, f/9 at 1/1250; Grand Teton with cabin and lake - 24~105 - 40mm f/5.6 at 1/400; Grand Tetons in distance - 24~105 -28mm, f/22 at 1/60. Such a magnificent place to shoot.

Like #1...reminds one to consider the road "less traveled". Don't know if it is real or an illusion, but everything in #2 appears to be leaning to the right!

What do you think? I believe that the original is accurate but I do believe by changing the Rotate in the Transform menu to a -0.7 may have helped this illusion out a bit. Thanks again

I really enjoyed these. Two and three are beautiful landscapes. One is interesting with the long stretch of road ahead and the mountains in the distance. The downloads are a necessity to fully appreciate these shots.

Again it just looks askew to my eyes (perhaps my astigmatism)....but the structure porch supports are not vertical, many of the trees are just slightly right leaning, and the lake appears to be higher on the left than the right. This may all just be perspective, but I personally would play with rotation and distortion correction a bit to see if there is improvement with a few tweaks. The structure looks like it is falling back into the mountain to me, but again this is one of those subjective issues...the photo itself is wonderful.

#1 reminds me of my father's rural mail route
but with one of those gates which was actually part
of the barbed wire fence (just swung out with
a wire loop to slip over the post when closed).

I just noted this was taken with a 40mm lens...I believe that your image is much like one taken from the base of a tall building where it will be appear to be falling away from you because of the perspective?
