Taking photographs is enjoyable and challenging in all sorts of ways. It's a powerful means of string memories, showing situations or expressing views which does not insist that you should be good at words. But don't fall into the trap of thinking you must have the latest, expensive camera to get the most telling shots. What photography demands of you ① is skills of a different sort that are independent of the technology used to capture the picture. Of these, ② the most important is the ability to observe - sharpen up your 'seeing' of surroundings, people and simple everyday objects in the world around you. Avoid ③  taking these things for granted just because they are familiar. Develop your awareness of the way lighting and viewpoint can transform appearances, and be ④ quick thinking enough to sum up a fast-changing situation by selecting the right moment to shoot. Become ⑤ skilled in these areas and you will be a good photographer.

I can't believe it! I know that word. It's the word (that) I couldn't spell this morning. I bet Dan won't get it ③ right, either. "N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-S-M. Narcissism," he says boldly. My heart drops in ④ appointment. It's over. He's won. "Congratulations, Dan! You are the winner," Ms. Hawking announces happily and a huge smile ⑤ fleshes across Dan's face.
