3. Watch Movies. It is another source of inspiration, as they are nothing more than still images shown to you at 29.97 frames a second. Lots of ideas for concepts, lighting, messages, or just plain pretty images.

4. Shoot with style. Pick anything around the house andshoot it just to see how it turns out. You'll see that how you shoot something is far more important than what. With digital cameras, there's no excuse not to!

5. Learn about art history. Visit art exhibitions featuring photography and discover how different people have portrayed the world. Reading about photography will putyour work in context.

6. Watch movies. Movies can be extremely innovative in experimenting with lighting and concepts. So learn from them. After all, movies are just lots of photographs shown in quick succession.

7. Shoot in different conditions. E.g. iff you shoot in early morning, late in the afternoon or in sunset, the available light will add more depth, create interesting shadows and color changes for your convenience. Try to photograph places in fog - it will hide distracting background elements.

8. Carry your camera everywhere. Take at least one photo a day so you can keep a record of your life in a whole new way.
