Got yourself a fancy, all singing & dancing SLR camera and wished you knew more about composition and colour? I have just been reading some tutorials by Caroline Mockett.
Caroline has written 11 short and snappy [ pardon the pun :-) ] articles on composition and colour. There is a brief introduction to the theory with some stunning examples of each category to illustrate the topics well. It's worth just taking a look for the lovely photography.
Here are some quick links to the topics:
Composition #1 - The Rule Of Thirds
Composition #2 - Lead-In Lines
Composition #3 - Using Symmetry
Composition #4 - Framing Elements
Composition #5 - Creating Depth
Composition #6 - Using Repetition
Composition #7 - Fill The Frame, Or Not?
Composition #8 - Using Triangles
Texture & Tone in Monochrome
Subdued Or Single-Colour Images
Vibrant Colour

Hey, Sheila - thanks for the plug!
And the tips apply equally to those using snappy compact cameras - good composition is just as important in those circumstances :-)
