these are very nice tips to know,
if you are just a casual photographer then this are all the tips you need.

Step 1: First Rule

photographing is a skill wich you can practice the more you do it the better you will get.
so its best to make as much pictures you can with your cellphone video camera or just a normal camera.

the cell phone is esspecially handy because you can carry it everywhere.

Step 2: Rule of Thirds (sort Of)

this trick will turn your regular boring snapshot into a real picture
this is almost neccesary when making pictures of objects and you want to make a nice photograph

what to do:
1. get your object and push your shutter button halfway to focus on it
2. move your camera in such a way your object moves from the middle of the picture to the side of it
3. move the button all the way down

Step 3: Depth of Field

we as humans see 3 dimensions
1. height
2. width
3. depth

a camera only see height and width. but if you put something like a bush or a stone in front you create the illusion of depth

so instead of just making pictures make sure there is some naturall object in front
