Composition: keep it simple, they say

There is this rule in photography (landscape or otherwise) that says one should keep the image as simple as possible. It is easier to structure the composition when there are only a few key elements to combine and the background is simple and clean. The final result is neat and easily comprehended and appreciated by the viewers.
