NOW WHAT DO I DO:  

      1)   Why? -  Before taking a photograph, ask yourself honestly what you like:

      2)   SLC -  Image consists of three primary elements in varying degrees:

                 SUBJECT .......... LIGHT .......... COMPOSITION   

      3)   Insurance  -  Start with  "Snapshot"  of scene.

            -  Move in, optically, & isolate elements of scene.

            -  Bracket "1" stop over/under, ... re-focus ... re-shoot.

            -  Enhance image, if appropriate, with graduated ND filter, etc.

                        (the best image may be behind you. (You're always looking forward.)
