I know it must be somewhere and moving all the objects in my scene higher (translating everything up in y axis) doesn't lower my physical sky horizon line.
Its really weird to have the horizon line above the horizon in some of my scenes. There must be an altitude setting or horizon offset setting.. yet I don't see it.

I think your chair might be too high, or the monitor is tilting downward perhaps?

In all seriousness you cant move the horizon, but you can offset the camera lens, aka 'shift lens'.

Hi 3dtrialpractice,

The horizon line, when the viewer tilt is leveled horizontally, appears always in the middle of the frame, no matter your height. You can be at the top of the Empire State Building, that if you maintain your view leveled horizontally, the horizon line will be there in the middle.

The only way to "move" the horizon line up or down is to tilt your view (or camera) up or down.

ok i understand
but for some situations would be good to have that control
Right now I would have to try to do it in post via 2 render passes not the greatest solution

No, you dont understand, try reading the advice above one more time.

For default camera lenses, the horizon will always be centered in the middle of the frame.

To move the horizon without altering the perspective there are three options.
- You can zoom out so the image shows whatever you want to see and crop the image in post.
- You can tilt the camera and correct for the perspective distortion in post, as dario suggested.
- Or you can use the "shift" option of the camera.This will virtually shift the film with respect to the lens. Basically like Option one but without rendering unneccessary parts
