#10 SIMPLIFY THE SCENE
When you look at a scene with your naked eye, your brain quickly
picks out subjects of interest. But the camera doesn’t discriminate – it
captures everything in front of it, which can lead to a cluttered, messy
picture with no clear focal point.

YOUR OWN STYLE
Remember the composition is important but also rules are meant
to be broken.
So the main points is to enjoy yourself photographing and
photograph in your own way
