Venice - Pincushion?

[mainegod]

I really liked this photo of the Bridge of Sighs, but I can't help shaking the feeling that something is off with the perspective - is this pincushion effect or something else? I straightened it through PSE, but not sure if there is anything else to be done. Anyways, appreciate your thoughts and comments.

I love it, dont think there is anything wrong with it. Did you crop it ?, image proportions dont look quite right to me.

Greetings maingod,

the photo looks very nice. i thinks what's throwing you off is the building on the left is taller than the building on the right. the blank space is making it look like it is off center.

just my thoughts.

Peace,
Yanis :D

thanks for the feedback all. Perhaps it is the discrepancy in building height, or the crop (I did leave off a few feet of wall on the left hand side). Will try some variations to see what works better.

try to rotate it 1-3 angles to the right.. its the first thing i noticed when i saw it

I second that. Other than this (minor flaw) - I like the picture very much.
