The tilt in this pic doesn't work for me. I'm still trying to figure out some general rules for tilting, so I'm not really sure why it deosn't work.
I have formed one theory based on a composition tip I read, but it is still untested. The tip pointed out that Westerners are used to viewing a page from left to right, so for a more compelling photo, you should try to have the eye enter from the left. Considering that tip and the fact that diagonal lines tend to lead the eye, my theory is that tilts in the other direction should work better,
