I pulled a copy and conducted a super-high enlargement in Photoshop--the application has an easy and foolproof way to straighten an image--and found that tilt, downward on the left. to be 1.24 degrees. You'd think something that small wouldn't be recognizable but it is. I saw it too. It doesn't bother me--I think the photo is mystical--but sometimes, depending on one's software, it can be difficult to adjust level. In nature, the curve of foliage or a lake shore can throw off that level, but when there is a structural feature near the middle of the image, like the picnic shelter here, it becomes sure-fire. In my enlargement I ran a line across the eave line and that's how I discovered the tilt's measurement. Unless the builder is truly incompetent, structures are the perfect tool for photographers.

Apocalyptic, but in a cheerful way. The shrinking pool of light gives the image focus and drama, as the approaching clouds threaten doom. And if there's any tilt to the image, it's probably coming from the viewers. It's straight enough.
My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
