							 If  viewing  a  building  square  on  like  this,  vertical  lines  should  share  the  same  vanishing  point  and  horizontal  lines  should  appear  horizontal.  If  they're  tapered  lilke  Vok  suggests,  then  their  floors  are  also  sloping  toward  the  outside.

							 vokaris,  they  are  vertically  tapered,  just  as  the  original.    I  just  duplicated  one  side,  and  added  the  bridge  of  sighs...  cleaned  it  up  and  water,  etc.  I  think  I  should  have  added  more  of  the  bottom  of  the  bridge  showing...just  a  tad.

							 Vertically  tapered?  The  original  is  vertical.  It  appears  tapered  because  it  vanishes  to  a  vanishing  point.  That's  called  perspective.

							 The  buildings  in  the  source  photo  are    vertical  as  most  buildings  are.  They  look  tapered  due  to  perspective  -  all  verticals  merge  in  one  imaginary  vanishing  point

							 The  perspective  applies  to  the  walls  between  the  buildings  too  -  see  similar  twin  towers  photos

							 I  asked  if  the  buildings  were  tapered  because  they  look  like  Temple  Gates  in  Ancient  Egypt  due  to  a)  the  angles  of  the  walls,  and  b)  the  angled  reflection  in  the  water
