While sunrise and sunset photos are nice, unless the scene contains spectacular colors, huge clouds, or fast-rolling waves (at a beach), too many of these photos can be bland. Try to add a silhouette, such as:

* A person or people
* An animal, such as a bird or a dog
* A sailboat or other watercraft
* Trees or shrubs
* An expansive bridge

To get certain subjects into your photo may require patience, but they help add depth and perspective to your photos.
