I once heard somewhere that
The faintest pen is better than the longest memory
So,as I was going through my notebook I saw this piece I pened down two years ago...yeah 2 years.
Can't recall where I learnt it from to be specific,but I'm glad I saved it somewhere,hope it helps someone out there.
7 powerful photography tips
Increase ur knowledge on this aspect and you'll be a great photographer...

Perspective is everything

Finally
Lighting is key
Learn how lights affects emotion on a picture...learn sunlight photography and artificial light photography.
