Basic Photography Tip #4...

One of the most basic photography tips that exists is called "The Rule of Thirds." When composing a shot, divide up the picture frame into a vertical and horizontal grid of thirds (similar to a tic-tac-toe board).

Rather than placing your subject in the middle of the frame, place them at one of the four intersecting points on your imaginary grid. This will usually produce a more compositionally pleasing results.

What else a beginner should know about photography tips and tricks?.. Any Help? Thanks.
** And remember not to apply this rule to ALL.. yes.. not to all pictures taken...
