Right on.
Another thing I've been doing lately is composing with a crop in mind
for later. Specifically, I've been composing for square prints.

Many times I have found myself in a situation where the picture/object simply isn't
accessible for shooting other than by having to include a lot of "noice" in the frame
at the time of shooting. There may be people's heads, there might be construction
details, there may be an empty street filling the lower part of the picture etc. (One
of the important things to remember in these cases is to make sure that anyone using
these frames will be made aware of how the picture is supposed to be used, that is -
cropped.)
Also, I tend to look at my harvest of pictures as a potential of thousands of new
pictures, in that you can make such endless use of photographs already shot. Anyone
who'll sit down for some time and really check what cropping, enlarging of parts,
recoloring etc, can do to a picture will know (or already knows) what I mean.
