A shot of the fish as he's coming out of the water, spray flying, with the lure prominently displayed in his mouth, can give a priceless feeling of action and excitement. Another way to add interest to your photos is to take it from an unusual angle. That's going to be a ho-hum picture at best, unless you work with it. Get low, get high. Taken from a squatting or prone position, the catch and catcher will both look heroic, larger than life.
Savvy photographers use what is called the rule of thirds.
The magazine photos that grab your attention almost always have their points of major interest about a third of the way into the picture. Draw the grid up and across, and you'll understand. Photography doesn't have to be complicated and time-consuming to produce enjoyable, quality images that help you remember days afield and share them with family and friends. You don't need thousands of dollars' worth of equipment. Use your imagination and a bit of attention to detail, and you'll be producing shots everyone wants to see time and again.
