now I like to play with angles myself but you need to keep it sane.. I'll go through each pic and give you a pointer

#1. no problems here.. it looks natural and nothing screams this is crooked.. diagonal shots from a height are good for this

#2. once again good. the lines aren't 90 degrees to the screen but the perspective is still squared to a point in the center 1/2 of the pic ( a good trick to use)

#3 even tho the left to right lines aren't straight. the up and down lines are straight so the pic is fine. the fact the left to right lines aren't straight are ok as it's simply perspective.

#4. this is the only one I wouldn't go with. I would position the red building near the middle of the pic so that the up and down lines are straight. otherwise i feel like i am looking at the pic from a drunks point of view. the pic is good the angle not so much

you know what I would actually adjust #3 just a touch now that I look at it again as the lines aren't straight in the center of the shot and the body of the crane looks a bit crooked

maybe just a touch

Whoa now! You're on to something with this one! I like it.

The "V" made in the sky is good balance, if the horizon was brought up to the center and you backed up a bit and crouched down this would be absolutely perfect in my eyes, fresh!



The others are good, #2 is great...good job

Hate to say it GU im with lord on this one, Really like the first 3 shots *1 and 2 especially* but 4 just seems awkward to my eye. My thought would be more of a vanishing point prospective. If you came down to grown level and took that white tower out of the shot, dead center in the middle of the 2 trains it would vanish off in to the red building. Would seem a little more pleasing to the eye and you would still get a scene of angle from the cars moving away and the ridgedness of such a large object vertical.

Just my 2 cents
