Tip of The Week
Ok, here's a good digital photography tip - move in closer to your subject. Based on experience, I've found that most shots will look better if you try to make the subject fill the frame. This means you should move in a couple of steps closer to your subject, or make use of the camera's optical zoom. A big subject in an image is much more appealing than a tiny one.
