“Hands up,” said Jack strongly, “whoever wants Ralph not to be chief?”

1 The silence continued, breathless and heavy and full of shame. Slowly the red drained from Jack’s cheeks, then came back with a painful rush. He licked his lips and turned his head at an angle, so that his gaze avoided the embarrassment of linking with another’s eye . . . His voice tailed off. The hands that held the conch shook. He cleared his throat, and spoke loudly.

"All right then."

He laid the conch with great care in the grass at his feet. The humiliating tears were running from the corner of each eye.

"I’m not going to play any longer. Not with you."

The pile of guts was a black blob of flies that buzzed like a saw. After a while these flies found Simon. Gorged, they alighted by his runnels of sweat and drank. They tickled under his nostrils and played leapfrog on his thighs. They were black and iridescent green and without number; and in front of Simon, the Lord of the Flies hung on his stick and grinned. At last Simon gave up and looked back; saw the white teeth and dim eyes, the blood—and his gaze was held by that ancient, inescapable recognition.

Improving Photo Composition

Composition is a term that refers to where objects are placed in relation to each other in a frame. Basically, it’s the skill of arranging items in a pleasing way. First, you’ll want to decide on a distance from your subject: the farther you are, the more of the surroundings will be included in your photo. Of course you can always crop later but don’t rely on this. Camera orientation and angle are also important. Experiment with tilting your phone or kneeling down to see how the composition changes in your viewfinder.

According to the text, what should a photographer do if he only wants the subject in the photo?

rearrange items in the background
tilt the phone so the lighting improves
kneel down to add more area to the viewfinder
get as close to the subject as possible
