I can only assume the tilt is some attempt to crop out a major distraction in the original shot? Otherwise I can't understand why in the world it was done. I find it impossible to get past the angle, but the shot iself is well taken and a nice scene.

Like the photograph, but I find the tilt a little distracting. Maybe if it were straight on, it wouldn't be so? Just IMO of course.

This is more like sea shot.

I would have like this a lot better without the odd angle.

The angle is not working here. Its unatural to see a waterfall and a river run upwards.

Beautiful capture - and I like the tilt - but looks like a large body of water to me (going against the grain of the "Land" challenge because water takes up more than 50% of the real estate). Still a great shot.

interesting angle of something that photographed ALL THE TIME!! What's the spot right in the middle?

If that isn't a large mass of water I don't know what is!

A nice shot though it must have taken some time to decide between Land(not sea) and Sea (not land) :)

The angle is a little off for me.

The Falls are dramatic enough, without shooting at an artificial angle.

could be a good shot, if there wasn't a) the heavy tilt and b) the bird (or whatever) in the center
