Hi! I rarely see photos that look good by introducing (either a lot or just a little) tilt. Granted, I don’t look at a lot of professional photos, and I’m more talking about typical amateur photos. So my question is: is there a situation where introducing tilt is beneficial? Or am I right in my intuition to just avoid tilt when taking photos?

Assuming you mean left and right tilt and not up/down. That would make it "Dutch Angle".

It's generally used artistically to show tension or unease.

Thanks, that's exactly the resource I was looking for. I'd give more than one upvote if I could :D
