What are the arguments for and against always lining up

muh verticals

It's autistic and only autistic people care.

The human brain lines up verticals naturally, even when you're upside down you still know which way is up. I'm not saying you should ALWAYS line up your verticals, but unless there's a point or purpose it looks bad if you dont.

Jared told me to line up my horizonticals as well.

OP here, I used the wrong terminology. I don't just mean holding the camera even with the ground, I mean perspective correction - ensuring ALL your verticals are precisely lined up.

Apparently it often requires shifting the lens, or using photoshop. I guess you could say that it's unnatural but since I started paying attention to photography (recently) I've liked the effect so much that I like seeing it everywhere, not just in architectural photos.

But of course most famous and hobbyist photographers don't do it. So why not?

You should try it, and decide whether or not it looks right for your print as a whole, and as a finished work. In OP pic, it works really well.

Actually, 99% of making sure your verticals are straight really is just keeping your lens parallel to the ground. The difficult comes in finding a lens wide enough that you can capture more than just the doorway.

So no arguments for or against then?

No, why should there be? Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It's up to the creator of the image to make that call.

And when they're making that call they would be making arguments for an against it to decide.

Fuck of with your nothing responses.

The argument is really against "always" doing anything.

Rather, just consider perspective as something you can control and make thoughtful decisions about it rather than being like "whatever, nobody cares about perspective".

If an image clearly was meant to have strong vertical elements and they aren't actually vertical, it makes you look sloppy. Knowing when it matters is really more intuition.

Ansel Adams "The Camera" is a good place to start. Learn about perspective control. It is rewarding.
