dutch angle

An image that is framed at a tilted angle. Often used to fit tall characters into a wide image. The technique may also be used to make an image appear more dynamic or visually interesting.

The term originates in filmmaking, and is also known as the German angle or Batman angle.

Basically if you find yourself tilting your head to one side in order to see the picture in proper perspective, this tag is appropriate.
