And perhaps the single most important principle in terms of sheer compositional quality is: Garbage in, garbage out. In other words, a photo is only as good as the input parameters the photographer utilizes. Period. This is even true despite all the digitial video editing software that exists now. It's very difficult to clean up a poorly-shot, poorly-set up, poorly developed photo after the fact - no matter how state-of-the-art your editing software is. As with all truly artistic endeavors, it's the artist and her sensibilities that make the art good - not merely the tools, equipment and accessories she uses.
