    Tidal Basin 2 Ways

    Got up early again hoping for that purple sunrise. A little bit too cloudy but the clouds were interesting so this is what I got.

    What do you like, the color or the B&W?

    B&W gets my vote.

    Is it me, or is the horizon leaning a bit to the right?

    The horizon is more or less level, you are seeing some serious distortion from the 17mm I was shooting with.

    I have to say, and I am a poor example after my crooked last post, but the Jefferson Memorial is more or less level in the color version and the Washington Monument is tilting quite a bit to the right. Whereas in the B&W version the Jeff is leaning a little to the left and the Wash is leaning a little to the right, just about perfect for the UWA you're using.
    I have to say I like the color version better.
