I guess that's why I shoot everything angled so the straight ones are my
accidents ;D !!

Now now John boy be nice :-) as the angled effect here doesn't do
anything for it at all and only makes it look like it was an accident.

However, I'll concede to you, that sometimes if one is shooting for an
artsy fartsy art magazine or one of these over trained exotic vision art
photo editors, tilting, twisting and all the composition rules in the
book are out the window!

But in my book of photojournalism there's no such such thing as screwing
with a picture by tilting and twisting it, any more than I'd condone
photoshopping in a person or pyramid being moved.

Like it's ethics!
