Like this image a lot Sunny, however as you say it is level which I fully believe is true, I also feel a little CCW tweak helps the viewers eye. Have had similar dilemmas myself and I feel in the end one need to strike a fine balance. Scots levelling above I feel is a wee tad overdone.
I strongly disagree. Like I said earlier there is one thing that is absolute in nature, reflected objects in water are perfectly vertical to their counterparts. No debate.
I know what is happening here. There are many elements fighting each other. The rocks are at a slight angle in relation to the scene and where the mountain meets the water is creating a line that is tapering down to the left because the camera is elevated above the water. It is a perspective issue. The further left of the image you look the closer the mountain is in relation to the camera. The image seems to have been level based on that line when in reality it would be tapered do to the camera being elevated about the water. The higher up the camera is the more it will seem to taper. Its all perspective.
I drew the lines to confirm the photo is not level then I leveled it based on the furthest line in the very center of the image where the mountain meets the water since it is the most square to the camera and would be the best line to use for leveling.
My edit, is level, but the compounding elements are all paying against each other to create a challenge.
You can all agree or disagree but facts are facts.
