This may be tought to answer, but at what point... or, how do you know when.... you are no longer mimicing the composition of what you have learned and start to understand composition itself.
One thing that keeps sticking in my mind is a photograph Bitter Jewler posted... I beleive it was in a thread about taking photos of something 10' from you. It was a window sill, and it was an incredible picture. Such a simple thing, no more that 10' from almost anyone at any given time, and it was caputred to draw so much interest. When I got home from work that day, I duplicated the same shot on several of my window sills... and they all looked just as good. Long story short, I am now capable of taking GREAT window sill pictures.... but that isn't *me* (those astricks are for you erose90210).
How do I go from taking what I read in books, see on the Internet, and pick up out of magazines and apply my own twist to it?
