I hate to say it's the light stupid as I find this somewhat rude but it hits the spot. If photography captures nature just as is it becomes an unnecessary bore. One must create the shot by manipulating the image seen by the eye and pre visualizing it as the final photograph. Therefore, the more unusual the light, the more unreal, the better the photo gets.  Here are some example that I hope you like. All shot in Sicily with my trusted and capable Olympus E PL-2.
