Re-submitted, thanks for taking the time to notice.
It's a tough call to make on this image, there are so many slightly "off" angles near the horizon. What doesn't help is that the horizon is slightly curved to the right and the hill/coastline to the left is at a more acute angle. Every time I correct it, It still looks a bit off. Do you think that looks better?

I have an engineers eye and horizons instantly stand out to me if they are off by even a fraction The horizon on this version is spot on

My Welsh sunsets have engendered a lot of horizon comments over the past year. I straighten it, then some else says thay are wonky so I straighten to again and it goes on and on and on and on......

Sometimes your eye can be thrown out by other factors, like breaking waves and headlands but the horizon stil needs to be level lol
