Didn't notice tilted horizon line. Check angle of the horizon, and other vertical and horizontal lines, before shooting. Straighten horizon with image editing software by rotating and cropping. |
 |
Underexposed image (too dark) due to strong backlighting - Take photo from another angle. Or should have locked in focus and exposure on the darker area, then recompose. Also could have used Auto Exposure Bracketing or changed the EV (exposure value) to a plus (+).

 |
Depth of field (DOF) too shallow - Should have increased DOF by using a smaller aperture.
