Basic Photography Tips (that I learned over net):

Googling "photography tips" I found several common and well known tips to make shooting photos more meaningful. I'll compose this post to completion gradually.

Important Photography Tips ( Most important first ) :

1. Choose a subject:
Shooting photos is not just you want to let others see what are you seeing that time of shooting. In a single shot you have to tell as much story as possible.
2. Fill the frame around the subject:   
Fill the parts around the subject with meaningful objects that quantifies the subject itself.
3. Get closer to the subject: 
This can be achieved by putting foreground or zooming the subject closer.
4. Take the subject off the center:
Think the frame as 3X3 grid. Now put the subject on one of the intersections. If possible put background/foreground in other one.  
5. Pick different angle:
Most of the people take photos on eye level. That makes a photo boring. Choose a different angle.
6. Use foreground to let the eye lead to the subject: 
Pick an object on the foreground which will lead onto the subject. 
7. Avoid cluttered background:    
Do not put any background that distracts the subject. If it is not possible to avoid then make it blur.
