Photography, as a master once said, is both an art and a craft.
To be good at it, you have to have both the inherent talent, or as we often say, the eye for a picture, and the skill to capture that picture in the way that you visualised it.
I have always fancied myself as having a fairly decent eye, but have been a bit lacking in my understanding of the basics. (I'm the type of guy who never reads the manual.)
Anyway, I've recently come across a series of articles dealing with the basics of photography, and thought I'd share it.

It covers a range of subjects including Shutter Speed, Aperture, Depth of Field and ISO and Film Speed. Hope that helps.
