Often photos of birds are shown more or less as a portrait. Often cropped very close which leaves little to none of the surrounding shown. There is nothing wrong with this and God knows I have plenty of them my self. There is however a certain charm in showing the environment and, more often than not, the photo becomes a bit more interesting. /Sven   Canon 1dx, 300 f/2.8 is Canon 1dx, 300 f/2.8 is Canon 1dx, 300 f/2.8 is Canon 1dx, 300...

When shooting architecture perhaps the hardest task is making all the straight lines fit. Lines from roofs, buildings, rails, streets, lamp posts and many more. Sometimes it´s worth the extra step top make sure they fit, even if it takes you close to the edge =) /Sven
