Noone can get consistently good shots and not understand a good level of photography.I think that the only way anyone can learn how to take better photographs is to learn how to effectively critique their own work. I think alot of people take them with little thought or maybe just seem to resign themselves to the fact that they will never really improve but just enjoy doing it anyway. I do not think this is a positive way of thinking. We should all  be critical and be able to evaluate what we produce. Photography is never static. Nobody ever learns everything but it is the challenge of trying and learning new things that keeps you interested. As you have shown with this thread people just need to look at the basics such as composiiton, pose, light, cropping and editing to see that a photo can be improved in many ways.</blockquote>
