You just can't go messing around with perspective all willy-nilly without some strange effects happening. The shot covers about 60 degrees and the wire attests to that fact unequivocally. It's pretty much what you get with a wide angle lens though, too, I think. I'll try and get a larger version up tomorrow for detailed scrutiny. It would be interesting to hear your comments.
