During my last hike I came across an old bait shop. Because I love abandoned buildings I took a quick shot with my camera. But it was the middle of the day, and the light was pretty flat so the photo was uninspired.
I continued on with my exploring and when I came back to the bait shop the light had changed. It was later in the day and the sun was lower in the sky. The resulting photo is much better, the wood colors are warmer and the shadows are more interesting.
Remember, if your photos are uninspiring, wait for the light.
