Capturing motion, while certainly not essential, just really adds something when you get it just right. Which is the never-ending search, but not entirely elusive. The key is to just keep looking for it, while you keep doing all your other stuff in your little bag of tricks. The thing is, if you just tried to always capture movement, that's what all of your images would look like— like someone who's always trying to capture movement, and sometimes nailing it. That's a redundant look, with unfortunately more misses than hits. When you're always looking for it, but still doing all of your other things— you'll occasionally get it, but your overall work won't look like that's your only quest.
