  • To capture good-quality images without hazy or unfocused results, always keep your lens clean. 
  • Adjust the exposure on your camera. Although smartphones these days come with auto-adjust settings, it is essential to check and adjust the exposure as needed before taking a picture.

  • Always use natural light whenever possible. One key reason photographers adhere to specific timings for capturing photos is that images generally turn out better with natural light compared to a bright flash.
  • Additionally, zooming in while taking a picture can reduce the quality, so try to avoid zooming in too often.
  • If you're taking pictures of something in motion, focus on a single subject. 
  • Set your smartphone to self-timer if you're taking your own picture. Using a remote shutter can result in a shaky and blurry image. 
  • If you're a beginner, always use grid lines to capture a good shot. 

By keeping all these pointers in mind, it's easier to get an Instagram-worthy image next time.
