I tried tilting and it did improve some but couldn’t get everything in focus in the tree and the foreground at the same time. In addition the light was about to change quickly so I couldn’t fiddle with the tilt for more than a minute or two, and so then I decided to shot the other additional slides.
In the end, there’s so many constraints in the field, we just need to use the tools that will get the shot you envision; in my opinion is about getting the shot, not how to get it, although it is of course interesting for us photographers to share/discuss the process and tribulations :-)
