Have been pursuing photography as a hobby since my childhood and Year 2006 was the point when the hobby...
Framing & Composition
1. Decide on your subject.
2. Check the background and foreground of the subject.
3. Move the background if required.
4. Move the item if needed.
5. Remember, you can move as well.
6. Check the colour contrasts.
7. Follow the rule of thirds. Use your grid lines available for subject placement.
8. Find light before you think about increasing your ISO. Open windows switch on the light. Open shutters, curtains, window blinds. Using your phone's flashlight is also a creative option.
9. See the frame from different viewpoints.
10. Check the peripheral areas of the scene for any distracting objects, like footwear, wires, plugs, brooms anything that does not make a definite inclusion to the subject/photograph.
11. Keep it simple.
When shooting images which have symmetrical features, straight lines (e.g. horizon) ensure to keep the camera straight and balanced. Skewing is the most common error associated with an unbalanced image. Change in the diagonal axis also affects perspective in your image.

Composition is almost everything in Photography. Photography is all about how you presenting the scene you want to capture. Attention to it can often reward you with some striking images.
Composition in mainly how you are representing your content in the frame. It is a perfect balance of how well the subject and objects in your frame has been utilized.
Using the rule of thirds in photography helps a photographer to capture engaging and eye-catching photos. A well composed and clean image always attracts the person watching the image. It also tells a bit about the photographer who captured the photo. And to improve your compositions the rule of thirds technique is an essential thing to learn.
The idea is very simple and easy. All you have to do is to imagine a grid of six boxes in your camera’s viewfinder (like the one below). These grids consist of two horizontal lines intersecting two vertical lines. These lines should be equidistant from each other.
Identify the points where these four lines meet. This is the intersection points. All you have to do is to place the main subject that you want to highlight in the image close to one of the intersection points. This way you will be able to capture a well composed image using the rule of thirds.
Here is the grid lines which you will need to imagine on the viewfinder of your camera. In latest cameras there is an inbuilt grid to support you in capturing a well composed image using this rule.
Hope this lesson will be of great help to you.

Casual Photographer Vs Professional Photographers
Both are photographers in common, but casual photographers intend to click several random pictures and upload them. They don't have any constructive ideas on the art of photography. They are more relay on automated tools in the camera, and their pics don't express any uniqueness. But when it comes to professional photographers, they provide more time on learning other supportive arts like fashion, modelling, kids' behaviour, body language, client services, the psychology of images, Wildlife behaviours and more. They develop their photography skills based on the field which they select like events, fashion. Journalism and their pictures are more purposeful and represent the relative arts.
