Come on folks.
Go to the Forums banner, click on it and go to Challenge Discussions and click on it. Then find ‘mirrorrorrim’s’ thread – ‘Apologies from the “Tilted” host. At least the host has the guts to apologize and offers an explanation, unlike some other hosts.

I did misunderstood the theme; but the host proves to be an honest person and thank him for his humility!

To the host: my entry was DQd because the main subject, the crane was not tilted.
The tower was. So as the camera itself. And that was the exact purpose of my picture. Nevermind.

The objects must have a tilt in real life, read my comments below.

To the Host: I don't believe you should DQ my entry because" The images here are tilted from the curved mirrored surface only".At least half of the other entries are to be DQ on this criteria. Actually, why don't you describe tilted by WHAT MEANS shoud things be instead of encouraging us to apply our creativity and then DQ some of entries on the basis of your own feelings!! Maybe you want somebody's pic to be the winner here, huh??

#1. The challenge says "Interpret as you wish but I will DQ if not directly relevant to title." I am looking for uniquely tilted objects.
#2. I did not foresee that entries would be submitted with just rotating or distorting. If I had thought of that it would have been in the rules.

Please, next time write ALL and CLEARLY the rules BEFORE the submission time starts, so we'll avoid bothering you.
Take care

TO THE HOST: You DQ me with the explanation the camera was not tilted (which was not true!)... But in most of the entries here, the camera is not tilted or the tilt was created in PP!...

I object (sorry, couldn't resist). May be a language barrier. Entry was not DQ'd because of camera tilt or not tilt. It was DQ'd because main object itself was not tilted other than by perspective. Any minor tilts in the roof did not pass the major theme test.

I do not agree with you about my shot and about other shots!... You also said "interpret as you wish"!.... But I really don't care!...
