Prominent diagonal features missing The main theme becomes a horizontal line and a vertical element

The perspective really draws you to the Canary Station tower in the center. I would like more sky and less dark foreground below the fountain. Hi London!

This photo had huge potential! I'd straighten the horizon and work on the tones in the foreground - even make that pavement at the front all black.

Seems like more of a "perspective" shot than a "diagonal" shot.

Ok, the unlevel horizon on this one doesn't make the diagonal, that is made by the building...so -1 for unlevel horizon and +1 for the diagonal side buildings which evens out for a good grade!
