With the rapid development of digital technology there is an alluring tendency to chase the latest and the greatest gear. However as many professional photographers would tell you if you are to grow as a photographer one of the most important skill that you need to develop is an eye for composition. Here are some tips for improving your eye for composition :

1. Take lots of photos and become your own best critique. Throw away what you don’t like and focus on what you do like.

2. Constantly review other photographers and fine artists who are better then you. Identify what is it you like about their work and don’t be afraid to try it for yourself. Even if you don’t get to their level it will make you stretch and in process you will learn new skills.

3. Leave your camera behind on purpose and take pictures with your mind. Remember what you can visualize you will eventually materialize.

4. Pay particular attention to the foreground. Does it support your foreground or distract it?

5. Focus on the relationship between the objects you are photographing. How are they connected, does this make an emotional impact on the viewer.
