Not for Harry though - he's a Master and thus take perfect images
every time.

Harry also doesn't realize that the eye can adjust an image, hence his
theory that he takes pictures that are naturally natural is bull****!

For years, Mrs.E. and I have had a war of efforts to straighten the
various paintings and photographs hanging in the house. I walk in a room
and they are all crooked, tilted to the left. I straighten them out and
she comes along a day or so later and puts them all back to crooked again.
It was driving me nuts. So, I got a level and proved to her that they
were straight after I adjusted them. She claimed the floor must be off
then.

Anyway, after years of this, she finally went and got an eye exam and
mentioned it to the doc. Sure enough, she has a misalignment or something
in her eyes .... it's not an astigmatism .... he called it something else,
but at least it ended the debate and our pictures finally hang straight.

A few years ago I was fitted for a pair of eye glasses with a new
prescription. When I got home and sat down at the PC I noticed that the
perfectly rectangular monitor case looked like an isosceles trapezoid.

The doctors office confirmed that some sort of improper correction was used
during the lens processing.
