Sometimes looking at a picture you have taken is the best way for ideas. It gives you an image to look at and gives you perspective. Don't be afraid of adding your own touches to it. As you can see in this picture, I added my own feel to it and turned it black and white. (By changing this setting on your camera, it opens and adds feel and depth to your own creation)
The original picture was taken on the Athabsca River in Jasper National Park in Alberta Canada.
