Maybe this fellow could fix your camera so it doesn't take 'crooked' photos ;)>

The second half of this is where the 'face' is looking. A building, a flower, or a person, etc. may be said to be 'facing' a certain direction, often the primary light source. Thus, if the subject if off-center to the right, traditionally it would face across the center to the left side. However, both centering and facing are arbitrary and the exact opposites may be used to good affect, but with greater care in composition as they may actually detract from the attractiveness if the image. And even that can be done with care so as to jar the sensibilities of the viewer. I cut my 'teeth' on all this with a very good book called "The Hidden Persuaders" by Vance Packard in 1957. -Phil
