Composition

Pelicans on the Mississippi River
Photograph by Tom Atwood
Composition is important in a photo, but sometimes it is mainly left to chance. Especially when shooting wildlife. All the pelicans floating down the Mississippi in this picture cooperated, in terms of composition, except one or two. Their beaks are at a different angle, or point in a different direction. Nothing I can do about that, except Photoshop® them out. But that would be animal cruelty. Shutter: 1/250; f/5.6; ISO: 200 Focal length: 105 mm
