    Nice shot. Is the horizon off or is the barn on a hill?

    Glad y'all liked the shot.

    The barn is situated on a small rise that follows the curve of the turns at the north end of the track.

    But is the barn actually tilted? I assume the roof line is actually level. This shows that you have a tilted horizon. I'd straighten it up, as it looks odd as it is.

    The barn is of course level, the roof line appears tilted in the pic.....I had squared and cropped this image before settling on the original with the "tilt" look to it. Most shots I would adjust, but I like it this one as is regardless if it flies in the face of convention....it just looks "right " to me as is.

    Have to respect your opinion on the horizon level and how it feels to you.

    I do find the unlevel roof distracting.
