I just wanted to show that you don't have to necessarily be an expert to take well composed, pleasing on the eye shots. All it takes is someone with a decent point and shoot, plus a bit of know how to produce good results.
I presume most of us are using digital by now, so with the information here, when you get a chance, start practicing before you head to Los and see how the shots come out. From my own experience a trip to Thailand is more enjoyable when you realise you are taking good pictures to capture your memories rather than the "that will do" type of shots.
If you have any questions, or you want to submit a photo for myself or others here to advise you on how it could have been composed better feel free to do so.
Keep shooting guys!!

With both of these photos I cropped then to fill as much of the frame as possible and yet still keep as much of the original subject as I could.

Yes I can definitely see the improvement there. I think is all a matter of taking enough time over each shot. Most of us amateur photographers tend to point the camera in approx the right direction and press the shutter.
Interestingly enough whilst I was taking some of my pictures (particularly the close up facials) your words "fill the frame" did keep coming to mind and I got as close as possible.
I'll have to go out and do some practicing

Glad to be of help Redeye. That's the whole point of the thread and remember I am an amateur also, you have a much higher spec camera than either of my two shooters.
Those photos I chose, you would have got the same composition as the cropped ones if you had turned your camera sideways and zoomed or alternatively positioned yourself closer to the subject. You can see how I cropped them so that it appears the girls are facing into space.
Thanks again for your help, good to see some BMs taking an interest in improving their photography. As you say yourself it's just a matter of practicing. Cheers.

If you go to iTunes there are a huge assortment of podcasts to watch and even some Itunes U courses and they are all free, they teach some amazing effects and they really can make a difference to a great shot, plus the added bonus, the subjects you shoot look even better!

Thank's for the tips and taking the time to post them. I have no idea about photography and usually just point and hope for the best (a bit like my sex life) but I'm keen to try a few of your suggestions on my next trip.
I like the DOF shot. I'm not sure how to explain it but to my eye it causes the main subject to come alive.

Just took the opportunity on a lazy Sunday morning to read through your thread BB.

Thanks Uncle, hope you get some use and good results from them. Yeah I like the effect of the DOF also. It removes all background distraction and allows the viewer to focus solely on the subject. Here is a butterfly down on Koh Phi Phi. I used macro mode for this one, gave the same effect.
