If you are trying to improve your composition there are various things you can do to improve your photography. Here are a few to start you off.
One is looking for lines and shapes in what your photograph. Usually horizontal lines are less dynamic than vertical lines, and digonal lines are the most intersting. Also curves like the an S-cuver in a road or shore line are pleasent to the eye. In terms of grouping multple subjects try to photograph them in odd numbers becuase they usually look better to the viewer.
Another common composition technique is the rule of thirds. Imagine splitting your viewfinder into a grid of three by three. For the rule of thirds you'll want to place your subject at one of the four intersecting lines of the grid.
One last technique is to keep the shot simple and try to fill the frame with the subject. This way there is no distracting elements around or in the background. It also leaves no dout to your viewers what the focus of your photo is.
I hope some of these help. There are plenty of sites online which have more detailed information about composition. Look them up if your interested.

for me its not the camera itself(features, specs). it is how you take a shot with creativity and passion. You wont beleive but a cellphone built-in camera can also do a professional photographer quality pictures.
