I am traveling the Olympic Penninsula and here is a shot of Lake Quinault at the rain forest! D40X converted, 18-200mm at 29mm, ISO 100, 1/250, f8, -1 1/3EV hand held and edited on laptop. C&C welcomed!!:)
Carole is right, Shellie. Try doing a correction on the horizon so the image doesn't look like it's going downhill! I would clone out the two people in the very front foreground as I find them distracting being only half in and half out. Overall, I think this is one of your best IR's so far. It could use a little more room and maybe a bit more light tones in certain places but the overall look and mood is striking!
I dont think its so much the horizon....the land actually does slope downhill. I thought about remving the kids in the bottom portion but thought it would leave the couple in the chairs too close to the bottom?????
I think it's the slight lean to the right of the tree that makes the image feel tilted.
I'm not familiar with this particular conversion... Assuming the IR blocking filter has been removed, and that this IS an IR image, it's neat stuff; IR exposure times are quick with the camera converted as such, eh?
By the way, assuming you're using Photoshop, since you have little you can afford to lose around the edges, instead of rotating try the perspective function of the Crop tool.
