Just shooting 1 or 2 shots after eating with my friends at raffles place. It was about to drizzle as well. Haha

Hmm... Do watch the perspective. All the tall buildings look like slanting and falling down.
On the plus side, the timing was quite good as can still see the blue sky with some cloud trails. Good attempt.

So how do we eliminate the slanting effect?

If you want to understand how to solve the problem, first we need to understand more about perspective and the cause of it.

Here are a few good articles to share.

Welcome.

Now that we understand the problem. There are a few ways to overcome it.

1. Perspective Control Lens
2. When using wide angle, try to avoid point up to the sky.
3. Move further back, use telephoto and crop later.

Yes, that could work too.
