Remember the old saying that a picture is worth a thousand words? Keep those words in mind when you are composing your own photographs. What is it you are trying to relay with your photograph? Will someone else recognize it? Is there a clear subject? If so, what is it? If you cant answer these questions, look a little longer before you press that shutter button. One of my photographic mentors says that when you are taking pictures, your main job is to see. Once we master the art of seeing, we can then attempt to capture what we see on film. Not always an easy job!
