Guys and Gal....!

I have our 3rd child due any moment....!!!

I need pointer and guidance to get some great pictures that i have seen. The biggest problem i seem to have is things like backgrounds, no matter where i try and take photos the back ground seems to look shit...






I have a book case or a wardrobe in the back ground. I have even tried to hang a sheet between 2 doorways but it just shows up the creases and looks shit as well..

Help me.

I want to get this one right and taks some pics that i can get on the wall.

I have a Nikon D80, SB600 a Nifty 50 and an 18-200 so i have decent kit just not the brains to back it up. Have tried reading books but just get confussed and clueless.

Any quick wins...?
