One of the most important things to do in photography is to photograph a lot. Only experience will help you to know how the camera will render this or that scene in these or those conditions. Only by trying new things a lot will you have a mental catalogue of ways of rendering something. Once you start to have this, though, you must use it. Start to look at things around you as the camera will render them. Only then will you reliably start to see the finished picture before you take it.
This was a scene that leapt out at me when I saw it. Without the experience I've gained I would only have gotten a shot like this by luck. In the end this came out almost exactly as I hoped.
