The power of editing

Sometimes i find it difficult to say how much editing is suitable for å photo, and sometimes even wonder if it is worth the work.
Maybe the composition makes it a waste of time to edit the photo.
I am no expert either in shooting photos or editing them, but sometimes even an amateur are able to create nice pictures 🙂
Here is an example, and first i wondered should i adjust the horizon/rotation a little, but decided the small tilt was suitable for the composition.

I find it fun to take photos, but even more, editing them 🙂
