What's wrong with my camera? (pic)

[River Side]

no.. that was in response to Scotty's suggestion that 'some post processing' could make it a "keeper"!

Do you mean that am I kidding about keeping it or not keeping it?
I definitly don't want to keep it. It is a terrible shot, it
wasn't even taken by me. My mom shot it since she wanted to see my
new cam. She actually has a degree in photog. but recently sice
her eyesight has been going, she can't see much in the lens. I'll
bet if she was 15 yrs younger this would be a great shot.

Other people have reported viewfinder alignment problems leading to tilted pictures. Do some test shooting and (possibly) send your camera into Nikon.

Since it's been through photoshop, some information (ISO, metering
mode, etc...) is not available.

Taking a closer look at it with Photoshop, there is some quirkiness
happening at the top near the trees (those were trees, right?).
You could consider stopping down your lens as well. Did you
actually shoot at F4.3, or am I getting munged EXIF fields?

my mom shot this picture the other day, so I don't know how exactly
she did this. No effects were added, straight from camera. What is
wrong with that dark shading? Where did that come from?

This is my pic against the sun. Definitely the strong sunlight has
affected the performance of CCD. The blue sky to the left and the
brown line in the water to the left (1/400 , F13) - Lions Gate
Bridge, Vancouver

This was taken last week on a cruise to Alaska. Got the D70 a week
before, all other pics taken during the cruise are ok expect I need
to check whether horizontal level of the pics, got pics that are
slightly tiltled lower to the right, even using grid line through
the viewfinder, need a cross pattern to test further. Just wonder
whether other users have noticed this problem (tilting).
