Marc,

When I'm not imaging people (or the stars), I find it exceedingly difficult, almost impossible, to pick the camera up and take a photograph of "something". There's nothing in that for me, and, it doesn't bring me the joy and sense of accomplishment that comes from actually planning for an image and capturing that light. Part of that whole planning rigmorale is finding compositions which work on the whole; ensuring there's appropriate empty space, appropriate borders, rule of thirds, golden ratio, and so on. Sometimes I succeed, sometimes I fail, with cluttered messes. These are sometimes difficult to see in landscapes, but, much easier to see in portraits.

I guess it probably is now subconscious.

Thank you.
