I second TellumFS.
Spend time at www.photo.net.
Look at photos, and lots of them. Pick out what you like about certain photos, and then concentrate on developing an "eye" for it. Don't read reviews, and tutorials the whole time... because that will only show you how to look at photo's by someone else's measure.
Once you have an idea of what you like, and why... you'll have a much better chance of taking those pictures yourself. The why will show you the how.
The mechanics of taking the shot however... go here. This is the best starter anywhere on the net.
