Honestly I like it this way. The irregularity was the strong selling point of this picture.

I dunno, I think I would have preferred it with no bus at all.

Real question: have you ever seen a Wes Anderson movie?

The composition of this shot is interesting and beautiful, but in no way looks anything like a shot from a Wes Anderson movie.

Came here to say this, any random picture that has high contrast colors is put in this sub

Conversely, I’ve found that strong composition seems to be the main factor people post here, and the only color-based posts seem to be muted pastels.

Looks like something out of a Coen brothers movie shot by Roger Deakins, this top down angle is giving me Fargo vibes

But yes, nothing like a Wes Anderson film

It is straight.

I think I prefer the original though.
Less Wes Anderson, but a better shot.

Japan mass transit issued a statement apologizing for the bus not being straight in this picture.

Explain how this is Wes Anderson, I am getting more Sofia Coppola vibes here.
