The finer points of photographic “composition” (not actual life size)

Well, this image ain’t gonna sell as fine-art, but I maintain an objective eye wherever I go!

At least I think it’s bear shit, it isn’t dog, it isn’t feline and definitely not deer. Then again, I’m not into the finer points of scatology. This fine nugget was the last but not least in a four-foot long “trail” and from a purely scientific standpoint, I believe, as with humans, a juvenile was responsible.
