In the photo below I have overlaid a grid to show you how the lines in the photo are not straight. It is important to note that I was using the stone base under the lions as my reference point.

To fix this problem I added grid-lines to my camera, this helped me to straighten out the photo by lining up the horizontal or vertical lines with the grid. In the photo below I have again overlaid a grid to show you how I have straightened the image out.
To add the grid-lines on an android phone go into the settings of your camera and then you should see an option to add the grid. On most cameras again go into settings and you should have an option for a grid. Unfortunately every phone and camera are different so you may need to check your manual or maybe google instructions for your phone or camera.
Don't worry the grid won't show on your finished photo.
If you still don't think your photo's perfect, you can always straighten it out using the rotate tool on editing software, such as Snapseed on your mobile phone or NCH Photopad on PC (both of these are easy and free to use).
Don't forget to send me your photos using this tip so I can display it in my exhibition at the end of this workshop. I would be grateful if you could also send me photos of you doing the work for my course. Email me here
