Take lots save few. Don't be afraid to take the camera off the auto setting. Be patient and use a tripod or have a steady hand with no quick jerky movements. Concentrate on the subject. Mo ve around the shot to avoid blocking ligh or casting shadows. Do not over expose or kill the natural shot in post processing. Have fun and enjoy.
