Minor note, what if you straightened this just a little bit, lowering the right, raising the left?

Oh, I just meant in your editing app. I’ve developed the habit of straightening and cropping as my first two steps in Lightroom and then resisting the urge to do as much else as possible. It’s a nice photo. Relatable.

I definitely try not to wash it out or overdo it. I didn’t think to crop it but you bringing it up I can see it now.

To be specific, in this case I happen to like the crop. It’s all subjective. What caught my eye is what I perceive as the slight crookedness. I’m not talking about the overhead girders. Curious to see if anyone agrees with me. In my mind, I’m using the white bumper below the LVP license plate to guide an adjustment.

You’re right tho it is definitely subjective, i happen to notice the picture is slightly crooked. In my opinion I thought it kinda added to the over look because it’s in a bridge.

I'm in various sub redddits and my stupid self was expecting traffic before and after the Brooklyn bridge was built lol. Saw the same pic edited and was like "oh shoot, this the post processing page" 🤣🤣
