Reminders are good. Learning new things is good. Â So you might look at this list, of 21 Ways to Shoot Better Photographs, as either a list of reminders or a list of new things to learn. Â Either way, it is good.
I think the most important ones, for me, are perspective, framing, intentional empty space, and the horizontal line. Â Everything else seems to fall into place once you follow those few things and really begin to see your photographs before you snap.

For me, the #1 thing I try to do is take lots and lots of pictures. Taking a digital photo is essentially free, so why not? By taking lots of photos, it gives you more opportunity to try different techniques and you have a better chance of taking a photo you really like.
Kyle: Another good tip, to be sure. Never be afraid to take a few photos of the same object, even from the same angles.
Thanks for chiming in, you’ve been lurking lately.
That’s a great list!
I’d say 3 of my biggest are perspective, framing and texture. If I happen upon something with an interesting texture, I always want to take pictures of it.
