Thanks guys for the tips.. I've just purchased the 50mm canon lens ( newer version ) I guess the L version is suppose to be a better lens? I actually understand the rule of thirds but now that I think about it.. I don't really think about my shots and how I picture the frame to be. I just go in a start shooting since the camera is digital and I don't worry about having to process the film like the old days. I guess I should start to plan my shots, think about the shot and how I would like it to come out and have a lot of patience.

One thing I can't still grasp is there is all these different types of lens and I understand the concept of a Zoom, macro, and fish eye lens / wide angle lens.. but I don't understand why there are different mm lens. For instance my kit lens 18-135mm would cover the 50mm lens that I just purchase right? Why would I need different lens that fall into the 18-135mm range?
