Pisa Tower
Lens: DA 18-135 WR Camera: K-5 Photo Location: Pisa,Italy ISO: 80 Shutter Speed: 1/45s Aperture: F9.5 

Hi..When i was in italy i took many shots of the tower of Pisa,but i tweaked this one in PP. Do you think that it's too much of PP?? I will be glad to hear your comment and criticism.
Thanks,Dionysis

It looks a little bit crooked.

I like it. It is very dramatic in front of the black sky. I like the angle: it seems to be leaning away from you as much as it is leaning to the right. I think most tourists would stand back and maximise the lean to the side.

Not at all! It definitely gives it a very dramatic look and the PP was done very well. What time of day did you take this photo?

The PP works for a dramatic look. Nice!

The vignetting is a little overdone for my taste, but I like the darkness of the sky. And this is one case where you wouldn't want to perspective correct in post.

Its a nice dramatic angle, but I find the sky to be slightly too dark/black.

I like it a lot.... but.... it matters not a jot ! Its your picture your style and your interpretation.
Any picture can only be wrong if its not what the photographer wanted or intended.
others can say they like or disslike but none can say its wrong.
The builders hadnt better give up there dayjob though lol
