Problems with photo height/sizing on home page.

I have a photo container on my home page set to "landscape collage."
If I turn off varying height, the photos on the second row don't fill the width of the table.
If I turn on varying height, the second row usually fills properly (Success!):
But sometimes they do this (Fail.):
Obviously, examples 1 and 3 look unprofessional and are completely unacceptable. Is there a way to make the page look like #2 consistently?
Thanks.

I'm not seeing on your homepage what you show in your screenshots. Have you made any changes? The only multiple photos content block is at the bottom of your homepage and it shows 5 popular photos. Let us know if you still need help with that.
But just to confirm: the collage layout is dynamic and will usually change the display of photos as you refresh the page. If you need total control and consistency, you might want to use the grid layout instead.

In collage mode it still occasionally drops a single gallery down to its own row and it looks terrible (as in pic #3).
And of course I would like to know why Grid view would result in image #1 in my OP.
Most importantly, however, is this:
This is using a collage mode and you can see the photos don't all align correctly. Do you know why this is happening? Thanks.
As for photos not aligning perfectly: they don't have exactly the same aspect ratio. I had a look at a few photos from the first two rows, and their dimensions are 7317 x 4847, 7263 x 4847, 7360 x 4912. These alone, but especially the first two, vary just enough in the aspect ratio to make the tiles not align 100%.

As for Image #1 in my OP, that is a screenshot of grid view. I rectified the problem by adding more galleries but that's obviously not ideal.

Your first image shows the collage landscape layout. Can you please go back to the customizer and select the grid layout? You should be seeing what is displayed in the above screenshot.
