Here are a few notes from the class on 19th of July:

• Keep Composition Simple - uncluttered
• Use converging vertical lines to draw a viewers eye towards points of interest

Set yourself a project to motivate yourself to take photos

Look for subjects when you're not carrying your camera (then go back)

Look for the relationship between your subject and other objects

Be aware of atmosphere and lighting

Use your compass

Return to your subject at another time of day, of the week, of the season or of the year - you will find you will take a totally different photo .

Walk about! Alleys, behind houses, along rivers... off the beaten track.

Include people in the photo

Ask yourself why you want to take the photo

Don't forget about tonal composition

Use glass as a canvass, let it's reflection be the subject

Take notes

I hope that that makes sense.
