How to take great pictures in a big city?

Question by Calla: How to take great pictures in a big city?
I’m trying to get into photography, and live in Los Angeles. I have a Canon Rebel XS. Three questions:

1. Getting into photography. Any tips, suggestions, like on composition/exposure?

2. How do I get pictures? I mean, I feel kind of awkward walking around a city taking pictures. Also, wahat about places like parks? It would be weird for someone to just start taking pictures of you, wouldn’t it? What is the social standard – like do you just start taking pictures? Do you ask? If so, how?

3. Any ideas of pictures I could take in LA? Can anyone direct me to a good LA photography album?
