The top resources/tips that helped me were:
-This video:
Better Photographic Composition - Beyond the Rule of Thirds
-Various videos on exposure: How ISO, Aperture, and Shutter speeds relate to one another.
-Stopping your lens down 2-3 F-stops to get the highest quality image and sharpness in most or all of your frame.
-Other small tips include making sure you're completely stopped before framing your shot and taking the photo, holding your breathe as you hold and press the shutter button to minimize camera shake(handheld), and the Sunny 16 rule.
-Shooting in RAW and post-processing in Lightroom to get the most out of my photos.
