We are totally surrounded by potential images, and so very often even photographers will walk right past without taking so much as a second glance. Or perhaps will be so fixated on arriving somewhwere to do a shoot that everything on the way there and on the way back remains quite unseen. When I first bought a "serious" camera, a while ago (I'm not going to define "a while ago" just now) the first real hurdle was knowing what to photograph. The untrained eye has no vision, it sees the obvious only and even then doesn't explore its potential. So we need to train our vision to see, to explore, to look for the potential in a subject. Then we get excited by a leaf, or a piece of broken wood, or a cascade of light where it wasn't expected.
In celebration of the concept of something out of nothing, I'm going to look now to see if I can find you any examples. I haven't looked in advance so I'll either prove the point or shortly feel very embarassed!
