How, when you have a tripod and have taken time to set up a decent shot do you manage to still make it exceptionally wonky?!



Gutted! Thought this shot was going to be a good'un...

I presume you mean the grass, which you're using as a lead in? All is not lost! In fact that's pretty easy to repair in Photoshop....

I've no idea how it happens though - it used to happen to me from time to time until I really slowed down and started double & treble checking my mental checklist before pressing shutter release

That scene needs multiple exposures of a 3 stop range and then merging. Sky's nicely exposed, but the palace is blown
