This short video is looking at composition, colour, line and balance, with hints and tips on how to recognise when to stop and when you should keep adding to the image.
This is not something that is black and white (sorry about the colour reference pun). And there will be inevitable mistakes made on the way but the video helps to give you the confidence to keep going or stop and to have faith in your own judgement.
