Hi @abdullahriyaz ,

please allow me to respectfully disagree. You are a pretty good photographer.

I don’t have a crystal ball but I’d still take the risk to predict you’d get lots of responses to your

question that imho can’t really be answered. Let me tell you this: we all would like to be a

good (better, “the” best, even fantastic) photographers. I used to be a pro (commercial).

Over the last few years I have been considering myself an advanced (???) amateur. I’ve

earned Google’s trusted status that’s only connected to the number of posted pictures and has

nothing to do with the quality of pictures. I take this opportunity to share some of my thoughts

and maybe some of you find them useful. So here is my Ten Commandments to good

photography:

First, take all the pictures you can and even more. A missed picture can never be recovered.

Unwanted pictures (whatever it means) could aways be deleted. Second, use good camera and/or

phone. You can’t win a Grand Prix with a hardly working old timer. Third, be yourself. Try to show

what you find interesting and unique (within individual platforms’ guidelines, of course). Fourth,

don’t try to show too much in a single frame. Most of the times less is more. Fifth, carefully position

the main object of your composition. Doesn’t have to always be centered, the 1/3 rule is only a

starting point. Sixth, try to use as high resolution as you can. When you trim (crop) your pics you’d

still get acceptable size (resolution). Seventh, use but do not overuse photo editors. Eight, pay attention

to details (devil always in details): a horizontal line should be horizontal unless you try to emphasize

something that overrides this rule. Nineth, always respect your target (object). Always show their

best features. There are exceptions that should be treated with caution. Tenth, visit the great

photographers’ Web sites (too many of them … :grinning: ). They have tons of great ideas, tips, advices,

examples. +1: don’t pay too much attention to all the above. Good luck!
