Posted: Sun Feb 03, 2013 4:05 pmit is just the angle they are shot at..there are several other photos you can see they are completely symmetrical and even. If you talk to or know anything about Manito you know he has meticulous attention to detail in his drums. Having said that I do think his photos could be better 
When you try to fit too many objects in a photo (like 3 or 4 drums) it warps them a little bit unfortunately. They are not bad photos but they do not show the amazing details of the wood grain, etc. I have Manito bongos coming at the end of Feb. and I will post photos and videos when they arrive.
