Mark,

Thanks for the idea. Actually I went back and looked at the original file, and what you see here is the whole shot, just as I framed it. It isn't cropped at all. At least I was holding the camera horizontal!

Germaine,

Thanks for the suggestion. Actually, when I picked this photo out of a bunch I shot at the fair something about its disjointed colors and content attracted me. When I was working on it, I actually did try straightening up the perspective lines in Photoshop and when I got it almost perfectly straight I no longer liked it. It seemed to lose the sort of zaniness that attracted me to in in the first place.

I suppose you are right that it would get dinged for the perspective in a challenge!
