they're not really tricks though are they? Just the stuff you'd find in any
basic photography book.

But browsing through some of their suggestions I couldn't help but think of
some of Cartier-Bresson's remarks about the very things that CNN are
recommending:

"I hope we will never see the day when photo shops sell little schema grills
to clamp onto our viewfinders; and the Golden Rule will never be found
etched on our ground glass"

"There is a lot of talk about camera angles; but the only valid angles in
existence are the angles of geometry of composition and not the ones
fabricated by the photographer who falls flat on his stomach or performs
other antics to procure his effects"
