Continue shooting ~
no, there is no standard way of shooting.
the trick is to know the characteristic of your lens, look at the scene and try to work the composition.
as i almost always work with ultra-wide angle, i will use leading lines and search for foreground subject, then put them into the frame as part of the composition.

not teaching or anything, just sharing what i know and or do..Tecni-god giving tuition
Must read everything carefully
hmm, share some composition stuffs...
leading line
i like to use leading lines to help guide the viewer to the focus point of the photo. imo it best works when the line starts from the edge of the screen and continue all the way into the frame.
example:

foreground interest/subject
imo it works by 'anchoring' the photo, giving it a strong composition and also taking care of dead space at the bottom.
example:
Resonance by t3cnica, on Flickr

human element
some people dun like having human subjects in the photo but i am in huge favour of doing this as it provide a sense of comparison between the human and the surrounding. everyone knows how tall an average joe/jane is, from there the viewer can gauge how big and or wide the actual scene/building is.
example:

Thanks for the advice... Learn something new about taking landscape...
Shot too dark. I actually notice riverside point rather than the bicycle to be honest. I didn't even know the bicycle was there. lol
It's shot in the night, guess I need to use mini-tripod if
I want to reshoot this scene again.
i learnt quite a bit from my friend darren soh:
