I hope this doesnt get too slammed for this challenge, because I really like this photo. Maybe Ill get a 5.5 this time.... sigh...
Raw conversion, rotate, crop, 3(neatimage + sharpen), add border, save.
Post: Ok. Lets actually look at this picture. Looks like the walls are straight. So, how can the horizon be tilted? Maybe, just maybe, its not tilted, but rather that there is a vanishing point? Maybe the left is a bridge so you can cross the 'moat' and maybe the right is the back which is further away. Hm, yeah, thats it. Oh, and this DEFINATELY rates more 1s, 2s, 3s, and 4s. For those of you that made worthwhile comments, thank you. |

| If I'm recalling the right palace, this is indeed perfectly level and straight. :-) |

| Dang... You Got Robbed!! This is an awesome photo. Should have ranked much higher! I was 79th place and there is no way this is just one better than my shot. |

| Dang, can't remember which one this is. Nice reflection, and I see you caught a bit of the red sky. (Commenting only.) |

| This is well done. You've caught a pretty clear reflection, which is difficult to do. |

| This would be a perfect image - if straight. Your horizon is tilted badly. |

| A nice shot with impressive sky colours. Its a shame the reflection couldn't be sharper. |
