hehe feels tilted to me too! I checked it a hundred times and the buildings are perfectly perpendicular. I think it's an optical illusion caused by the diagonal brace. I was wondering if anyone would notice it :) Thanks Lesley

Congrats on top 20 finish. I liked this one, got me wondering why the cyclist was pushing and not riding the bike.

Nice shot! The yellow of the outfit helps pull the focus straight in and contrasts with the predominantly blue bridge and buildings. I like that he's alone in this cold glass and steel landscape.
