We now have the ability to take excellent photographs with mid-range priced cameras. With digital auto focus cameras it is possible to take pictures similar to those seen in magazines and art shows. Also, the ease of use digital cameras give the user makes the picture making process idiot proof.
What else do you need to know to improve the quality of your pictures? One thing I learned in photo school was that you have to be responsible for everything in the frame. Start seeing like a camera does, not like a human. Humans ignore certain details, but a camera takes it all in. Pay attention to the background and to the sides of your subject. Are there things in the picture frame that you don't want there? Try adjusting your angle of view side to side or up and down and see if that remedies the situation.
Pay attention to the light. If you are taking pictures of people don't shoot with the sun behind them so their face is too dark, but also don't shoot with the sun behind you so your subject is squinting. A lightly shades spot with good all around light is best, or with the sun shining from the side of your subject will work.
Since you are probably shooting with an automatic setting you need to notice what color your subject is wearing and what color the background is. If the background and their clothes are a dark color and the subject is light skinned their facial features can wash out.
