nb. Click photos to embiggen. The Twin Lights show the flaw of shooting with a tiny lens in the iPhone 5. I can straighten the horizon but the towers are leaning towards each other. Larger cameras, more glass in the lens, and shooting with the camera straight on and not pointing up can eliminate most of this convergence. Last ditch there is always Photoshop to straighten out structures leaning in.

“Click photo to embiggen”? Are you serious? Do you mean ENLARGE??

Embiggen? A perfectly cromulent word. I know a tenured English professor department chair who uses that word quite a bit which I think makes it a real word. But I confess he probably made it up. Usually made up words, guesstimate is one, set my teeth on edge. But embiggen used only for enlarging things by clicking them on the internet I like.
Wait, urban dictionary says it’s a word: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Embiggen
and Collins has it now: http://www.collinsdictionary.com/submission/535/embiggen
Embrace embiggen, it is inevitable.

Your eyes naturally cause the towers to lean in.
To make a twin structures seem vertical you have to lean them out slightly.
BTW I was told the only twin lighthouse site was Navesink in Northern N.J.
Seems there must be at least 2 in the USA

I would bet a six pack you could google a photoshopped “straightened” version.
