If you know that you have a really important shoot the next day, make sure that you get ample rest. Yes, a lack of sleep will directly result in loss of judgment, which will hurt the quality of the shots that you take. Get at least eight hours of rest the night before a photo shoot.
When photographing landscapes, create a sense of depth. Use a wide-angle lens or your zoom's widest setting for a broad, panoramic view. Get a sense of scale by having a person or object placed in the foreground. Setting a small aperture ? no greater than f/8 with most consumer digital cameras or f/16 with a full-frame SLR ? will provide sharpness to both the foreground and background.
Learn how to use aperture on your camera. It indicates how much of the stuff that is seen in your view finder will be in focus. Low aperture means that only the foreground will be in focus and the background will be more blurred. High aperture means that everything will equally be in focus.
When you are making the decision of which of your photographs to display or show make sure that you choose your best ones. Do not show every photograph you have ever taken or too many of the same subject matter. It can get very boring for others to see the same thing over and over again. Keep it fresh and show different aspects of your photography.
Keeping your camera very steady is the key in shooting images that are crisp and very sharp. Many cameras have an automatic stabilizer built right into it to allow for some leeway. If you are still having problems keeping your camera steady, invest in some kind of a tripod.
Be aware that the weather will influence your pictures. You might not realize it when you take the picture, but a dark sky will give a very gloomy atmosphere to your picture. Compose your pictures accordingly and let the weather inspire you for interesting creations. You can also wait for different kind of weather before you take pictures.
When taking pictures of people, make sure that the background is slightly blurred. Having a background that is in full focus, will take away from your subject and make it harder to focus where you want the viewer to focus. You can accomplish this by making your background further away from your subject.
Many cameras allow you to set the white balance. This setting tells the camera which colors to see as highlights. When shooting in artificial light (indoors) set the while balance setting to the "artificial light" mode. It will make your photos look as if they were shot in natural light.
Try to experiment with colors, angles and the different features of your camera. You do not need an original object to take a high-quality picture. A good photograph should be able to make a picture of an unoriginal object look interesting, thanks to their skills and artistic talent. Experiment to find your style.
