About This is the main walkway into Show Memorial Park, where I was trying out my Bessaflex and Pentacon lens. Strange, for Japan, it was almost deserted on a bright, clear but chilly day.

Is it my eyes, or does this one have a slight lean to the right, Roger? Whatever, it's another interesting and well taken glimpse of your home city.
Best regards, Chris

You may be right, Chris. I'm normally pretty quick to spot this, so I would guess it's within one degree... well spotted, sir!

The issue I have with this version is the wasted space at the top. There's a half of the photo which isn't doing anything, in fact I think it unballances all the detail in the bottom half.

Crop at least half of it ;-)

Just read Chris's post, and I see the lean too, in fact I saw it in the other version. I put it sown to the path not being level and therefore an optical illusion.

The landscape version works much better, IMO. The bland sky is the issue here, but I suspect cropping it drastically will not really improve it.

I must confess I posted this for the person who was with me rather than in any confidence it was up to standard. It looked straight in the viewfinder but I can see the "lean" now. The path DOES slope slightly, by the way... You're probably right that it can't be saved. Thanks for keeping me honest!


Amitava Banerjea   {K:7076} 2/10/2005
Any time, Roger:-) Reciprocation will be appreciated too. Didn't mean to be harsh, just that I preferred the landscape version. I would have loved to have been there. Honestly, I can't see the "lean"; my balance organs must be fading:-)
