* What story am I telling?

* What is the visual focal point of this shot?
viewers of this picture naturally have their eye drawn into this scene
* What competing focal points are there?
Once you’ve identified what you do want your viewers eyes to be drawn towards and have placed it in the frame
* What is in the background and foreground?
One of most common places for distractions in digital photography is the background of your shots
* Am I close enough?
Another common mistake in digital photography is taking shots where your subject is too small in the frame
* What is the main source of light?
Always give consideration to how your subject is lit.
* Is my Framing Straight?
It’s amazing how many otherwise good photos are spoiled by framing that is slightly offline
* What other perspectives could I capture this subject from?
Make your images stand out from the crowd by challenging yourself
* How would holding the camera in the other format change this shot?
it’s also worth remembering that changing the format can drastically change the impact of the shot
* How will the eye travel through this image?
People tend to follow lines and are attracted to shapes and colors so considering all of these different visual elements and cues can help improve your shots considerably
