Table Ready for a Party of Four
« on: September 24, 2012, 08:05:16 am »

An odd compositional dilemma comes into play in this shot: if I correct for the level of the table and chairs, the buildings in the background go all askew. However, if (as I did in this shot), I correct the slight tilt of the background verticals, the tables and chairs seem slightly askew. I don't think it is enough to "screw" the shot, but it nonetheless bothersome. Any suggestions for a corrective action?

A perfect situation to play the "What, me worry" card.  Levels aren't gonna make or break this shot.

+1. Chris, you made this shot yesterday. You might want to let your stuff sit for a few days before you decide to post. Even Winogrand's eye began to drift as he aged.
