Follow these rules to take great photos.
Use the whole screen.
Check focus-touch screen.
Delete bad photos.
Check-the sun is behind you.
Check the background.
Different camera angles e.g. Eye level, Snail's view, Giant's view and Possum's view.
Here are some photos I have taken:
This is giant's view (hold the camera flat looking down at something like you are a tall giant glancing down.)
This is possum's view(point the camera up and look along something like you are a possum holding onto it.)
This is snail's view (hold the camera low and along an object like you are a snail slithering along the ground.)
