The edges of the picture were seldom neat. Parts of figures or buildings or features of landscape were truncated, leaving a shape belonging not to the subject but (if the picture was a good one) to the balance, the propriety, of the image.
IMO, not a whole lot more needs to be written / stated about the subject of good "composition".

The Internet is not big enough to list all the things wrong with the pens right now.
