The Dreaded Parallel Lines


I love lines and dimension in photography but this photo has proven to be hard . . . at least for me. I want everything to be straight and to line up. On this shot, when I'd get the stair straight the top railing wasn't straight. It also was very hard to know how to crop. I didn't want to crop too narrow and get rid of all the greenery, but I didn't want the subject to be too zoomed out. I didn't know if I should cut it at the stair or below, etc . . . I'm not sure there are any rules for this, just personal preference. I'm still not sure if I've got it right.
