The Rule of Thirds: This concept covers where to place the subject of your image. The idea is to avoid placing your subject in the center of the frame; rather, you should place it where the lines intersect on the image below.
Fill the Frame: If you have one subject that you want to focus on (such as a person or animal) don't stand 15 feet away and take the picture. Get up close and don't be afraid to fill the frame with your subject. It will make your image more memorable and striking.
Natural Framing: If you are in a location that has something hanging down from above your subject, (such as a tree branch or a building) or an object in the foreground (such as a plant or fence) than you can incorporate that natural framing into your photo. This is a simple technique that will make your photos look very professional.
Point of View: To make your photo collection really divers, take you photos at different levels and point of views. An image will change dramatically if you take it from a worm's point of view compared to a bird's.
Leading Lines: Be conscience of the lines in your image and use them to benefit you. You have complete control of how to move the viewer's eyes around your image and utilizing lines can be really helpful.
