A dangling modifier occurs when the word/phrase being modified is unclear or missing. Here, "Upon removing a leather-bound photo album" logically describes an action done by a person, but the sentence's subject is "the bookshelf," which cannot perform the action of removing an album. This makes the phrase a dangling modifier.
