Bowhunter_24's post should serve as the reason why as well as the proper "how" to take pics.

You take the pics to remember a specific moment in time. Kid's smiles, a dog's point/flush/retrieve, essentially anything you deem noteworthy. That being the case, take a look @ how BH_24 has composed the photos.

Here's a few tips:

Don't cut off heads, tails, body parts, or any portion of your photo's target subject.

Don't shoot your pic with the bright sun directly behind your subject thereby shadowing your intended target. Try to get the sun to light up your subject instead.

Get YOUR shadow out of the pic.

Try to get to the same level or even a bit below the subject of your photo

"Long-arming" photos is stupid.

And for the love of god put the belly of the birds up and heads facing the photographer.
