Only when you can add something to it
Avoid making a picture of an art work, unless you can add something to it. Advertisements

A landscape without a subject is boring
I visited a limestone quarry and altough the view over the landscape was impressing me, I needed a strong subject in it, so I framed it with the viewing “thing” as the main subject.
Midday light at the river Meuse / Maas near Maastricht
The sun was already high but there was still some fog over the river so I made the picture. Yes, this one needed post-processing to get it right.
Autumn colors and backlight in the spiders web
With the 50mm almost completely open you get still some sharpness but the BG is fully blurred. By enhancing the contrast the colors became very strong.
Go low, yes, go very low
Go low, yes, go very low and a new world will go open for you. No, you don’t need to go as deep as hell, the church floor will be sufficient. 3x reflections. Tip: Use a camera with a flip up screen
Outdoor photo exposition in Visé(B)
Visé is a nice small village and I was impressed by the outdoor photo exposition of the photo club “Zoom” in the centre of Visé.
I kneeled on the church floor with my 50mm (@f9 and @f1.8)
Portrait and landscape with 2 different apertures. Tip: Close to the floor you may find reflections. With an old hardstone church floor the reflection is almost a mirror. Bonus: without a tripod it is even no problem to use a low shutter speed 😉
