Here are some tips how to use your digital camera for you, and even a beginner can produce great pictures just like you always wanted.

Experiment your own digital camera. Take pictures with different apertures, shutter speeds, ISO, white balance, focus, etc.
Try to use another angle of view. Try to shoot children from lower angle or cars from higher angle. Every angle contributes new excitement.
Holding your vertically or diagonally can make your pictures look better. I personally like to shoot diagonally, because it leaves me a great impression. Just try it yourself.
Every photographer has his own style. Be confident that you can make a great pictures. I prefer not edit my pictures, because it is for me more interesting and challenging.
Take pictures as much as you can. There are unlimited possibilities how you shoot. This is a way for a beginner to understand better how use the digital camera.
Tripod is a muss for every photographer, especially when you take action in low light condition. It will also help you, if your hands are shaky.
Asking your friends who have this hobby or members of photography forum will help you to obtain knowledge faster. If it is possible, go hunting for awesome pictures with them. Believe me because I have a lot of experiences which I obtained from people who own great photography skill.
The man behind the gun is always you need to remember. There may be camera limitation, but try to push yourself to pursuit your imagination. A tool have limits, but not your imagination.
Get close with the object, unless you have a lens that allows you to zoom rather far. In this way, the object will be more focused and let people recognize what you want to express.
