Digital BW, The Print

Oh I know that! that would be very obvious what he is trying to do.  But
if I see an image, say of a lake or an ocean and the horizon is off by
say 1/4th of an inch, and other than that the picture is really nice, it
just drives me nuts. You see this ALL the time in advertising, and in
photography magazines. It is a pet peeve of mine, and the nicer the
picture is, the more it drives me nuts. Why would the photographer do
this? If it was 30 degrees, you KNOW it was on purpose, but if it was
just a tiny bit.... Arrgh!
