Tips from the Pros

Divide your screen
Divide the display into thirds, then put something in each third of the view finder. If thirds don't work, divide your screen in half and place the most important element off center.

Shoot in natural light
Photos are especially magical at dusk and dawn, but overcast days are also great for taking advantage of bright, diffused light.

Keep your camera ready
Keep your camera with you at all times and don't be afraid to keep clicking the button, even if your eye isn't in the view finder. Some of the most amazing photos are lucky shots taken from the hip.
