Do your pictures tell a story?

Photofocus Magazine has a thoughtful article here. Tell a story with your photos.

Why tell stories with your camera? Well, for one thing, people who look at pictures will enjoy looking at a story over a snapshot any day. Telling stories with your camera forces you to slow down and think about what you are doing. What is it about this scene that makes you want to make a photograph? What moves you or attracts your eye? Is there a theme, a phrase or a point of view that you want to capture and preserve?

Asking these types of questions will almost always lead to a better photograph.
