It is equally important to keep your camera lens clean like the way you want your screen to be spotless. Any dirt on the lens will definitely lead to mediocre pictures and you can’t blame anyone for that. The same cloth which cleans spectacles can be the best material to clean your camera lens. Thinking of using Colins for this? Well we’d say a yes to that also.

2. Composition is very important

It is the framing of your pictures with a perfect arrangement of visual elements as distant from the subject of work. The grid feature in your smartphone can help you get the right arrangement of a composition. The subject should get the main focus and must be clear.

3. Do not take background lightly
