More Running

You'll probably get lots of "The horizon isn't level" kinds of comments. For me, that's what gives this photo the extra boost it needs to jump one point. It gives the runner a nice slant as well. I would like to see the same shot, but with the runner in different places -- some with him silhouetted by the sky rather than in front of the large rock. I'm not sure if it would be better that way, but it would be worth a look.

Not exactly a resolution, but very colorful and nicely conceived.

Nice photo, nice lighting -- and I like the decoration -- not tacky at all -- perhaps that means to you, I'M tacky :)

I take it these are the grid lines being talked about in the forums. The buildings themselves seem very dark. Nice angle to the shot though.

Buildings lean in a bit, but otherwise, great. I'm not sure if this can be fixed -- is perspective adjustment legal?
