 your rotated photo rotates the base of the tree to vertical, but when trees grow on slopes, they curve to correct to be vertical at the top. so, in the original photos, the tops of the tree on the rock immediately to riders right are vertical. either way, between the version you rotated and the original, it's still ass puckering steep and gnarly.

 was thinking it'd look really cool if he had a smallish parachute deployed behind him as a brake.

 I rotated it 20 degrees clockwise to have a look, It's still gnarly as hell.

 Good old "Dutch Tilt". MBUK used to be really bad for it. Trees growing at 45 degrees and stuff Smile

Anyway, this is still a banger of a shot!

 Wohhh!!!!!! lunatic… this guy is crazy man, that photo made me spill hot lava into my pantaloons. Good thing he didn't try to roll that massive rock face. What a terrible shot that would have been.

 It's a 16mm lens, there's bound to be some perspective distortion.
