This image is focused on the foreground. Good depth-of-field, shot with a 20mm wide angle lens.

Interesting angle, sweeping composition.

Early morning, just before sunrise, interesting angle, interesting lights and time of day.

As I said at the beginning, look for elements of composition and light that can add interest to your images. Try placing the camera on the ground or on a very low tripod. Use your camera’s LCD screen to check compositions before you take your picture. Even though digital images don’t cost anything, taking the same old image by holding the camera up to your eye every time doesn’t make for interesting images. Also, keep in mind that photographs made between the hours of ten and two won’t be as interesting as those made earlier and later. The light is just to plain.

By all means, shoot many images of a particular scene, but look for more interesting angles and times of day.
