Sunset

One from tonight (shock horrer it's not a macro!). Taken with the 350d, 10-22mm @ f20 1.3s 12mm ISO100. I'm also using a Lee 0.9ND (soft).

I'm having trouble sorting the horizons, i'm pretty sure this is as it should be (the background hills dip to the left in real life) and going from the beech huts this should be level. But my eyes tell me it looks wrong.

Any thoughts?

Might add more later...

EDIT:
Some others as well

Actually almost no PP was done on any of these photos, just the usual curves & levels. And yes my sensor is very dirty!!!!

EDIT
I'm also the type of person that tries to avoid photoshop at all costs! Any effects used are made at the time of taking the picture. To get the imposing skys in the pictures posted here I used various ND filters. I'm still getting used to these so hopefully it wont be too long before I learn to use them a little more naturally. I did take some pictures without the filter which i'll post if you like so you can see the difference a filter can make.
