Well, "techniques for getting better shots" is a very broad subject. My input depends a lot on the situation.
As far as general things go, don't be afraid to get down and dirty (literally). I was shooting a statue in a nearby cemetery last week and ended up laying on the ground. It worked, I got the angle I wanted. I also shoot in raw whenever I shoot digital and at the lowest ISO possible in any situation.
By the way, for the style you have, those two photos are actually really good despite not following the rules. Centering things doesn't always work but it can. I would still suggest trying other things too though, you may find you like something else better in some situations.
