I'm in the proces of building my very first scene
The scene will be build on the skeleton below
Im not happy with the way the two flanking cylinders is posistioned on the
surface.
They seems to 'slant' or tilt outwards (left obj. tilts left and vis a vi)
The cylinder in the midle stands correct but why the distorsions in the
'margin'?
I'm afraid that the comments in the below code is in danish but they are
only reminders to my self
I would apreciate any help on why the cylinders are tilted and what i could
do to avoid that problem
regards krus

I was 'afraid' that it was something with the perspective. Did not know
about the camera trick though. That was a great help. Thank You!
(if others have interest)
I ended up with these settings :
camera {
location <-1,18,-50>
//right x*image_width/image_height
right 4/3*x
up y
angle 10 //
look_at <0,2,0>
}

Nah. Our eyes don't use perspective projection. The back "walls" of our
eye balls are curved, not plain and flat. But even if they did use
perspective projection, our brain would surely account for it and
correct it, so that we didn't percieve things as distorted, even if we
could examine the edge our our field of vision.
