1) Be patient. A further 5 minutes preparing for a shot will save hours in post-production. better safe than sorry.

2) Review your shot, and if necessary, recompose and retake. On your small screen objects may look sharply focused, on a computer monitor things change.

3) Be prepared, spare battery and a microfibre lens cleaner.

1) “The Shotgun Approach” – take many many many photos. even pros discard most of their shots.

2) “The Rule of Three” – learn it. use it. your subject doesn’t always have to be dead center in the frame.

3) Take a minute to care – stop leaning on software to fix your mistakes. you and your camera can do just fine on your own.

bonus – if you’re not using a point-&-shoot, start using a wide-angle lens (30-ish) with a polarizing filter.
