In reply to Cat. I know how you feel -- the first thing I do to 99.9% of my photos is straighten the horizon line :) Every once in a while there is a creative exception!

I’m going to be a little different and go with A. Hard to describe why but I’ll try. I feel like it gives a good idea of what the space is like and it’s as if I just suddenly turned my head to look up at the birds flying. Typically I don’t like photos that aren’t straightened properly (in the center of the image) but I noticed the building is actually straightened, it’s just on the right side of the image instead of the typical center. Anyway, that was an attempt to answer why but in general I just like photo A. 🙂

In reply to Rachel of Hippie in Heels. Nope! Nothing but the iPhone. I would never go case-less either! I switch between a waterproof Incipio case and one of the battery-boosting ones.

In reply to Jimmy Dau. Sadly not on this trip. I'll definitely be back to Ecuador someday to see them!

Love Quito especially riding around on bikes on the Sunday. Are you going to the Galapagos?

C for creativity, A for the unique angle & for managing to get that flock of birds in just the right spot in the frame.

In reply to Grama. Thanks gram! I knew you'd love the "mariposas" as they are called in Spanish!
