Nice shot. Maybe it's just me or the angle on my laptop, but it looks like it's tilting a bit to the right. There's a menu somewhere in PS where you can go in and correct for distortion, rotation, etc... I think it's one of the options under filters, then correct lens distortion. I'm not really sure, as it's been a while. Anyway, I love the colors and exposure.

looks like it's fairly straight, I scrolled the picture and used the edge of my window as a level. Don't think anything needs to be done as far as rotating.

We tend to do that in this state.

Nice pix!

As I look again this morning post coffee, I think that it was my head tilting to the right last night on my original viewing. Looks Great! Politically, I'm one who generally leans to the left, so maybe I was just compensating !

Thank you all for the comments i was actually surprised that this thred was resurrected, as far as the tilt i honestly can't see it leaning to either side so i wouldn't be able to correct it if it actually is leaning. I had this on a tripod and even did a little straightening in lightroom so im not sure what else there is to do.
