Наверное, кому-то проще придумать интригующую историю, чем понять, что в действительности Нэшнл Джиографик купил эту фотографию за композицию. Вот, кстати, описание принципа построения композиции в данной картинке
He [Abell] characterized his style as a layered style. He looks for elements that will work together to provide depth to the photograph. Two of the textbook examples that he used to illustrate these ideas were his picture of the Kremlin and his picture of some cowboys working on a calf during a roundup. The Kremlin photo was taken through a window in his hotel. A shear curtain covered the window. There were pears on the window sill. You could see the Kremlin, with St. Basil's cathedral in the background. These elements provided several layers for the photograph. To make the photograph complete, he waited until the light simultaneously fell on both St. Basil's dome, and the pears on the window sill. The final touch was a slight breeze that rustled the curtain. It is a memorable photograph.
